Tiger Woods is widely known for his bold and honest remarks about everything in all his media appearances. The golf legend speaks fearlessly about anything he is asked about in interviews, and his fans love that about him. Besides being honest, Woods also has a great sense of humor. And there was a time when the golf star took a hit at John Daly for using a golf cart in a professional tournament. And soon, Daly had the perfect reply for the 15-time major winner and his criticism.

With a brief smile on his face, Woods said, “Well, I walked with a broken leg, so…”. The golfer’s statement led the room to laugh about the matter. However, Daly soon realized that it was important for him to answer. In his response, Daly said that he wished Woods had “all the facts” before he pointed a finger at the golf professional. “Might have been a different comment,’’ Daly said. “As well as the Golf Channel Wednesday morning, when they bashed me pretty good, and a few others [who criticized me].”

Adding to his statements, Daly explained how his situation is far different than that of Woods. “He got his fixed for some reason. No doctor will replace my knee because of a different type of problem. It’s hard to explain why. I’m not a doctor. I just try to do what they say.” He also said that “Osteoarthritis is a tough thing”, and that it is “painful as hell”. However, he stated that Woods was the best player he had ever played with or seen on the field. Moreover, he sympathized with Woods by saying that he might also have had to go through pain during his knee issues.

When did Woods use a cart?

Woods recently used a golf cart during the JP McManus Pro-Am to move through holes. Despite making fun of Daly’s condition, Woods had to take the support of a cart himself. And it was due to his unrecovered leg injuries from the unfortunate car crash in February 2021. Nevertheless, Woods said that he was trying his best to get back to his best form. And fans would probably see him in the upcoming Hero World Challenge.
