The PGA Tournament begins today at Southern Hills in Tulsa, and through seven holes John Daly is tied for fifth! Granted, only about half the field has teed off, but let's not knock Big John: He hasn't even made a bogey yet (two neat birdies on par-4's) and is staring Tiger (-3 through 7) down from across the course. I wonder how Tiger would respond if JD started blowing cigarette smoke in his face before shots? I bet Daly finishes the day around +2, unless he has some side bets going, in which case he'll be four or five under.
UPDATE: Big John's -3 through 9 and tied for 3rd! Looking through the back nine, I predict the blow-up coming at the 223 yard par 3 14th. 16 is a 507 yard par 4 (!), which shouldn't be a problem as long as JD doesn't go in there on tilt. If so, he could make 8 faster than you can say 'Pay up on the side bets'.
SIDENOTE: In case you aren't convinced that John Daly is the man, check this out. It's fairly close to NSFW, but there's no nudity: It's from Deadspin.
