Sherrie Daly was married to John Daly for nine years and divorced in 2010. John Daly’s history of alcohol abuse, gambling problems and infidelity have given his ex enough material to write a book, which outs Daly’s inappropriate behaviors both on and off the greens, according to the New York Post. (Newser) - John Daly says he was forced to withdraw from the US Senior Open in Colorado Springs because his request to use a golf cart under the Americans With Disabilities Act was denied. John Daly is more known for hitting the ball into oblivion than he is for his golf success. That’s not to say he hasn’t been a successful professional golfer. Daly’s power off the tee, combined with his outgoing personality, has made him one of golf’s biggest names. Daly was in his prime in the early 1990s. John Patrick Daly (born April 28, 1966) is an American professional golfer on the PGA Tour. Daly is known primarily for his driving distance off the tee (earning him the nickname 'Long John'), his non-country club appearance and attitude, his exceptionally long backswing, the inconsistency of his play (with some exceptional performances and some controversial incidents), and his personal life.
John Daly has been diagnosed with bladder cancer, according to a report from the Golf Channel.
On an episode of Golf Channel’s “PGA Tour Champions Learning Center,” the 54-year-old revealed he underwent a procedure to remove the aggressive cancer. Although the procedure was successful, Golf Channel reported Daly said there is still a possibility of recurrence.
“(My urologist) said there’s an 85 percent chance it comes back. So I’ve got to go back and see him in three months. They will probably have to cut it out again,” Daly said, according to Golf Channel. “It’s probably going to come back, and then another three months that you don’t know. You just don’t know.
“Luckily for me, they caught it early, but bladder cancer is something that I don’t know all the details. Fun games on facebook. But it doesn’t look like it may go away. We will just see what happens. Maybe there’s a miracle.”
Daly, who won the 1991 PGA Championship and the 1995 Open Championship, addressed the reports Thursday evening.
“Hey All, thank you all so much for all the love, texts, (messages) & support thru this!” Daly wrote on Twitter. “It’s all still shocking for me but know I’ll do what I have in me to beat this! My whole life I’ve beaten the odds, so it’s NOT time to stop now!”
The five-time PGA Tour winner said he was battling kidney stones and back pain for weeks ahead of his diagnosis, and added that he will change his eating habits and undergo frequent check-ups as he battles the disease.
At the forefront of Daly’s health changes are cutting back on Diet Coke and attempting to quit smoking.
“The doctors aren’t saying it’s too late. Unfortunately, it’s a cancer that keeps coming back. But I’m going to listen to them, and I’m going to try and quit smoking,” Daly said in the interview. “If it comes back, it comes back. Six months to a year, if it doesn’t go away, I’m going to live my life. I’m gonna have some fun.”
Despite the diagnosis, Daly remains optimistic.
“Well, you know what, I always tell people I’ve lived one hell of a life. No matter what happens, I’m not scared to die or anything,” Daly said. “It would have been nice to play the last seven or eight or 13 years of my career a little more healthy. But hey, I’m still working, I’m still living life, I’m still doing the things I need to do. … I can accept the challenge. I’m not scared of that. I just want my kids to be OK and everyone else in my family.”
Daly last competed on the Champions Tour in mid August at the Charles Schwab Series at Bass Pro Shops Big Cedar Lodge in which he withdrew after two rounds due to illness. Daly also competed at the Bridgestone Senior Players Championship in early August, where he finished T-70.
Daly also withdrew from the field at the PGA Championship in early August due to health concerns.
