1406.1 | Does he still get the 50k? | SNAX::ERICKSON | What? Me Worry! | Mon Dec 23 1991 16:20 | 4 |
| Does he still get the 50k minimum? I know that he shot an 87 but signed
for an 86 thus the DQ.

| According to my morning paper, Daly did not show up in the earnings
column. I'm not sure he got paid.
Story has it he shot 87 and signed for 86. That included a 51 on the
back. He did break his putter and finished the round putting with his
wedge and driver.

1406.3 | give him a break | USPMLO::DESROCHERS | | Tue Dec 24 1991 10:19 | 10 |

According to the telecast, he got 50k for finishing last
even tho he dq'd. He'll learn from the backlash. But
don't forget, he had a year like he never expected.
Lanny's broke a few clubs, Crenshaw hit his head, Calc and
Green hit anything in their way, Walrus is always pissed.
No problem, he'll be fine.

Don't get me wrong. I am in no position to give him a hard time. I have
no idea what it must be like to be under that kind of pressure. I mean
I have put a few clubs into orbit with nothing on the line. I got
pissed the other day cause I couldn't roll a three footer into a dixie
cup in my livingroom. I'll never get it through my head that everything
breaks towards the bathtub.

| 'Gentle' Ben Crenshaw broke his putter on the 6th hole of a
Ryder cup singles match and putted with his one iron the rest of the
way. (Since he IS Crenshaw, he only lost 1 up...)

| I agree with Desrochers...the kid had a great year and is being hounded
by the media and expectations of a great tourney every time out. I
suspect he was not happy being in Jamaica mahn and decided to pack it
in early mahn. Or maybe he is a Seagrams mahn, mahn.
Let's see how he hits them in a few weeks at La Costa. That will his
beginning of the new year.
Good luck to him, because he will need some inner strength to
perservere thru the Roger Twibles of the world next year.

1406.8 | Gentlemen, please! | ODIXIE::RHARRIS | only one shot, please! | Thu Dec 26 1991 12:41 | 16 |
| Everybody is human, even Daly. I certainly hope people will quit
putting him high on a pedestal all the time. So he hits the ball real
long, he came in last place at the T of C on the big island, remember.
Golf is a mind game. Sometimes you lose and golf wins. That's the
GAME of it. Personally, I like Daly, but he is not my mentor in golf.
My mentor is of course Jack, and the controversial Greg Norman. Both
gentlemen on the course, and off.
Remember what golf stands for: Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden
G O L F
Not trying to start anything, because I do not believe in ladies
forbidden, but the G is for gentlemen.

I got pissed on New Year's Eve, but I wasn't in the least bit upset!
Another one from the American-British dictionary.
