TOTA Golf Talk
Let us discuss one of the greatest past times in the world. Here we can discuss anything and everything about golf.
So John Daly has decided to quit golf. I feel bad for the guy....he is loved by the common man and I think we can all see a little bit of ourselves in him but he just can't play the game at the top level anymore.

DALY CLAIMS HE'S DONE WITH GOLF AFTER MISSING CUT SAN DIEGO -- John Daly missed another cut and said Friday he was done with golf. Whether that meant for the rest of the West Coast Swing or the rest of his career would not be determined until the two-time major champion stopped going to PGA Tour events. Daly shot 71 at Torrey Pines and missed the cut by nine shots. Stopped in the parking lot by a crew from Golf Channel, which is filming his reality show, Daly said in a series of clipped responses, "I'm done. ... I can't compete. ... Just can't play like I used to." Early Saturday, Daly thanked his fans in a two-part message on Facebook and claimed he wasn't financially able to continue on the tour. "To ALL my Fans---my financial situation is putting me where I cannot focus on my game, I'm putting too much pressure on myself, the few sponsors that I have are great but it's not getting me thru these times--," the first part of the message read. He continued: "i want to thank my fans throughout all these years&I don't like to continue to embarass myself-- maybe my mind may change down the road but right now i don't have the money to be on the tour. My game has never been the same since my rib injury during the Honda Classic in 2007. God Bless! JD" It was the second time in six months Daly has said he was retiring. He threatened to quit after shooting 88 in the Buick Open last summer, although his swing coach attributed that to rapid weight loss. Daly went on to play four more times. Golf Channel has been promoting a reality show starring Daly that is to debut in March. Daly is scheduled to play in two weeks at Pebble Beach, and he has received a sponsor's exemption to the Transitions Championship outside Tampa, Fla., in March. "We haven't heard from him," said Gerald Goodman, the Transitions tournament director. "I wouldn't anticipate that to happen. I'm sure he was frustrated." Daly has missed the cut in both his PGA Tour starts this year. |
pity post.
Expensive sport.
A good walk spoiled.
golf doesn't have to be an expensive sport...if you go to the right courses. I can play for $40.00 a round and have a great time. Find me another sport that costs less then $10.00 an hour to play.
Mostly passion, but then it's as expensive as Tennis, only if you win though, Lol.

Originally posted by jchung52 unfortunate for sure. def a crowd pleaser and losing 115 pounds in a year in hopes of better golf and not succeeding is unfortunate. there are rumours going around that hes "quitting" to help with his new show on the golf channel. cant see that being true based on daly's nature though. |
Nice Lawn.

Originally posted by Spin Laden Good question. I would go with Weir, has won the Masters as we all know and his game is getting better again. Has a good short game. |

Originally posted by ChemEnhanced But Ames won the Players Championship which the players feel is the 5th major. I think Weir is the better player when at the top of his game but Ames is the more consistent golfer. |

I definately get frustrated watching Weir play....he will be at the top of the leader board on day one then blow up on day two and just make the cut. Then the weekend comes and you have no idea what he will do. I was impressed with his game at the Bob Hope Classic...very consistent every day. I think we will see Weir win a tournament this year.
so tota golf tourney this year hopefully lol
