Did anybody really think Daly had a chance of staying in decent shape playing in New Orleans?
He would do better if he hauled around a double-wide with a Hooter's inside.
I hate to see him do this to himself.

its interesting how the new orleans tournament has a leaderboard topped with people whose names sound like exotic types of seaweed; briny baird, shigeke maruyama

They will beat their swords into golf clubs and their spears into putters. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore. Old Tom Morris 2:4

Perhaps a bottle of "Chez Reavie" would help that go down easier.

Daly wins the Shell this week and gets into the Masters! How sweet that would be

"People think the size of the head is most important. Wrong. It's getting a quality shaft. test different shafts to see which goes the straightest. Also, more degrees of loft on the head is better than less. Eleven degrees is about right."

I will never admit that Big John is done. He's still got another major championship in him. Somewhere.

i agree.he t36th last year against all the odds at the US Open. so he can put a performance in when he really has to. I dont think his situation is as bad as its been hyped up to be.

Come on John Daly!

What I saw of him at the PODS for 12 holes is that he doesn't really blast it by everyone. His short game looked effortless, but his putting really sucked. If he fixes the putting he might be able to get a top 20.

Remember^^^John daly putts well on Midwestern United States greens remember he won Crooked Stick-PGA Championship--also an opening 67 at Southern Hills last year--after skipping both practice rounds to play the nearby casinos<<<<<<

      My Swing (Ty_Webb)

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂
