Will John Daly become first to make PGA Tour cut after a knife fight with the wife?

First of all, let me just say this: If we could take John Daly and Paris Hilton, and meld them into some type of super-person, they would take over the world as we know it, because everyone would be too busy watching their exploits to do anything else.

That being said, we wish Daly luck in his quest to become the first PGA Tour golfer to make the cut at an event immediately after getting into a knife fight with his wife.

Daly tells police wife attacked him with steak knife

MEMPHIS, Tenn. – John Daly told authorities his wife tried to stab him with a steak knife, and the golfer had red marks on his cheeks when he showed up to play Friday on the course where he lives.

Daly called police about 6 a.m. on Friday, Shelby County Sheriff’s department spokesman Steve Shular said. When deputies arrived, his wife and the couple’s children were not there. Deputies could not find the knife he claimed she used.

No charges had been filed Friday afternoon, and it will be Daly’s decision whether he wants that to happen, Shular said.

The 41-year-old golfer and his wife argued last night at a restaurant near the golf course, he told deputies.

Daly has won two majors – the 1991 PGA Championship and 1995 British Open – but his play has been overshadowed by two trips to alcohol rehab, outrageous tales of gambling losses, trashed hotel rooms and suspensions.

John Daly. Face it, if he didn’t exist, we’d have to invent him.
