John Daly criticized the PGA after they were eliminated after 13 holes in the first round of the Senior PGA Championship on Thursday.
The colorful cult hero posted a stark image of his swollen legs after failing to finish the course, citing the “bad” tee shots.
“It’s so hard to play poor quality tees,” Daly tweeted. “The golf course is great but I wish they would flatten their tee shots!”
“We’re not young anymore!!” Some guys are ADA and we can’t get through the downhill tee boxes!!
“I’m sorry @PGA you’re on the wrong track in golf but love you all.”

“But you make holes that are really, really long. St. Andrew’s never had a downhill tee.” Stop while NOT ahead…. Thank you 13.’
Mail Sport has yet to receive any comment from the PGA TOUR Champions in response to Daly’s criticism.
This follows Dally’s withdrawal from the PGA Championship earlier this month due to an unspecified injury.
1991 PGA Championship winner has ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act 1990) experience.
In 2018, despite attorneys to the contrary, Daly was denied a cart at the US Seniors Open and subsequently stated that he would not compete at a USGA again.
The lovable cult character from Arkansas is a heavy and lifelong smoker who also likes to drink Diet Coke
In recent years, Daly’s osteoarthritis has required a buggy to get around the track.
Daly said he was diagnosed with bladder cancer in 2020, which he said in March last year has become harmless.
The 57-year-old is a heavy, lifelong smoker and a proud Diet Coke eater – he once claimed he could drink 20 cans a day.
And a reporter once claimed he followed Daly at the 2008 Windham Championship and counted how he smoked 21 cigarettes, along with 12 cans of Diet Coke and six bags of peanut M&Ms.
