MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Jason Day plans a few celebratory drinks after winning the $8 million World Cup of Golf on home soil on Sunday before turning his efforts to raising awareness for the devastated Philippines where eight of his relatives were killed by Typhoon Haiyan.

The grieving 26-year-old competed with a heavy heart at Royal Melbourne but played some of the finest golf of his life to seal the individual trophy by two strokes and drive Australia to a runaway victory in the team component.
