LAS VEGAS – John Daly sat in a booth at the Hooters Casino Hotel sipping a Diet Coke and surrounded by merchandise, his merchandise. Suddenly a man who appeared to know Daly approached the golfer whose highly-publicized odyssey has included two major titles, two rehab stints and four failed marriages.
“What are you doing?” the man asked cheerfully. Daly looked up with a weary smile. “I’m trying to sell (stuff),” he said. “So get out of the way.” The man obliged, and Daly got back to hawking autographed pin flags for $40, autographed photos and caps for $20 and autographed golf balls for $10. A woman who worked for the casino stuffed the cash into an oversized envelope. The total would be calculated at the end of the night.
