John Daly Second after First Round of PGA Championship


Crowd favorite and past PGA Championship winner, John Daly finished with a 3 under par 67 and two behind first day leader Graeme Storm. John Daly did have the outright lead in the first round of the British Open before collapsing down the stretch. Today Daly kept it together and finished strong. Different than the other players Daly mentioned that he didn't play a practice round before this years tournament at Southern Hills. As the weather is scorching and most players drinking plenty of water, Daly said he survives on cigarettes and diet coke.

Tiger Woods finished 6 strokes behind the leader at +1. Tiger tees off in the afternoon tomorrow and will part of the TNT coverage.

Phil Mickelson started off hot only to start spraying his tee shots all over the place and scambling for par. Mickelson finished at +3.

Sergio Garcia made a nice come back after the missed opportunity at the Open Championship with an even par round. This puts Sergio in a good position going into Friday and the weekend.
