John Daly is one of the most celebrated players in the history of golf. The PGA Tour pro recently changed his mind and wanted to join the LIV Golf league. But was rejected by Greg Norman for the same. Despite making several records on the field like other fit players, the golf legend is currently going through a lot physically. Daly recently opened up about his new physical setback after withdrawing from the Sanford International tournament.

He wrote, “Saddens me that I had to WD… Looking like surgery on my left knee,”. Daly was also confident about his fans being there for him despite his sudden withdrawal. He added that he had some of the best fans out there. “I know the fans knew I was in pain…Be back next year healed up! Luv & will miss y’all!”.

A $3 million Loss Once Forced Bad Boy of Golf John Daly to Make a Decision About His Future in Golf

Daly was already going through enough due to his ongoing battle with cancer. He was diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2020 at the age of 55. Describing his experience dealing with cancer, he said, “Some days I feel like Superman, some days I feel like Jimmy Hoffa 6 feet under.” He also had a shoulder injury after it got separated. And while everything seemed to be settling, the golfer met another physical disaster with his knee this year.

Is Daly going to retire soon?

Long John has made many records on various golf courses including multiple hole-in-ones. The golf legend made his 11th hole-in-one in 2020 at the Bone Frog Open, and that too barefoot! If anything, Daly still has the same swinging skills. Daly doesn’t talk about retirement in his interviews. And after his recent tweet about his injuries, his fans know that the golfer is going to return in better form next year. Hence, it is clear that Daly is not willing to retire any time soon.
