Although the Sweet 16 and Elite Eight consumed Easter weekend, the PGA Tour version of Bracketology took place at the WGC-Dell Match Play in Austin, Texas, where Jason Day captured his second straight victory over Louis Oosthuizen.

Day also overtook Jordan Spieth as the No. 1 golfer in the world with the win, which gives him a ton of momentum heading into the Masters on April 7. The 28-year-old also won the WGC Match Play in 2014 when he defeated Victor Dubuisson of France, making him one of three multiple winners of the event.

After Day's win at the Arnold Palmer invitational last week, he made a clutch 12-foot par putt on the final hole to defeat Rory McIlroy in the semifinal on Sunday morning. He then took down Oosthuizen with a birdie on the 14th hole for the 5-and-4 win and the largest margin of victory since Tiger Woods took down Stewart Cink, 8-and-7, in 2008.

Oosthuizen managed to defeat Spieth and Dustin Johnson in the quarterfinal and semifinal, but it was apparent nobody could stop Day from rolling.

Once again, Day was consistent and dominant throughout the duration of yet another PGA event, which was his sixth win in his past 13 tournaments. He defeated Graeme McDowell on Wednesday, Thongchai Jaidee on Thursday, Paul Casey on Friday, Bradnt Snedeker and Brooks Koepka on Saturday, and McIlroy and Oosthuizen on Sunday. He also earned $1.62 million with the win.

Day's short game was unstoppable throughout the weekend, as McIlroy and Oosthuizen experienced firsthand at inopportune times. He couldn't have found a better time to get into this groove because the Masters will play to his strengths and he'll probably be the favorite at the season's first major tournament. Day captured his first major win at the PGA Championship in 2015 and could grab his second straight in less than two weeks.

A sore back nearly kept Day from withdrawing at the WGC Match Play, but he fought through the pain and said he was "glad" he didn't listen to the four members of his inner circle that attempted to persuade him to avoid risking further injury.

"I wanted to win," he said after the event. "I just want to win. I wanted to win so bad that I felt with how I was playing, I would be holding the trophy at the end of the week. That's what kept me going."
