Where does John Daly play next?

The two-time major winner plays in Florida at the PNC Championship next. He partners up with his son, John Daly II, and together they take on the field of 19 pros and their family members. The event begins on December 15. The first two days serve as the pro-am meet, and the championship begins on the 17th.
