BTW - Apparently one of the 10 provided Playgirl with nudes. Now its only a matter of determining if he plays with a 5 or 6 Iron. For his sake, lets hope he's not playing with his Asian clubs.

New-look Daly intends to write book
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Associated Press
COOLUM, Australia -- Now that John Daly has his weight problem sorted out, he figures a movie about his up-and-down career -- and life -- might not be far behind.
Just before heading out to the revamped Hyatt Regency resort course for a practice round ahead of the Australian PGA, the slimmed-down Daly, who has lost 115 pounds, entertained an early-morning news conference Tuesday with his cinematic plans based on a new book he would write himself.
“
I just saw Matt Damon, how he swung a golf club, and I thought if I ever made a movie, I want him to be me. The tough part is who would play me at 290 pounds. Now Kevin James, he's my bud, but he'd be good.
” -- John Daly
He nominated "King of Queens" star Kevin James as the actor who might play him before his weight loss, and ahead of February's lap-band surgery.
And who'd play the now-185 pound Daly?
"I just saw Matt Damon, how he swung a golf club, and I thought if I ever made a movie, I want him to be me," Daly said. "The tough part is who would play me at 290 pounds. Now Kevin James, he's my bud, but he'd be good."
When asked what the main storyline might be, he said: "It would just be the life, it would be the whole thing. The guts of it all."
"The problem is who is going to play all the ex-wives?" added Daly, who has four ex-wives, to laughter.
The most recent book about his life, "John Daly, My Life in and Out of the Rough," was published in 2006.
Daly's trip Down Under this year has been better than last, when he failed to qualify for the weekend in all three Australian events, the Open, PGA and Masters. He didn't play this year's Australian Masters, won by Tiger Woods.
He made the cut at last week's Australian Open, then shot 78 in the third round at New South Wales Golf Club. But he rebounded with a 1-under 71 in the final round and finished tied for 28th, 17 strokes behind winner Adam Scott.
"I feel I got a lot more out of last week that I thought I would," Daly said. "I hit my irons better. The short game is not real good but there are some good things coming out of it."
The Hyatt Regency resort course at Coolum was the scene of one of Daly's most famous meltdowns.
In 2002, after taking a triple-bogey 7 on his last hole, Daly threw his putter and ball into a greenside pond and later failed to sign for a 78 on his scorecard, disqualifying himself from the tournament.
He was later fined $5,600 by the Australasian PGA Tour and was ordered to write a letter of apology to a tour official he verbally abused.
This year at Coolum, Daly and others in the field, which includes Scott and defending champion Geoff Ogilvy, will play a redesigned course with six new holes, including a par-5 first that is guarded by water along the left side of the fairway and in front of the green.
Five holes situated between a nearby coast road and the Pacific Ocean on the original course, which was designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., have been earmarked for resort development.
Before he left for his practice round, Daly took a swipe at players who have criticized Woods for his recent marital problems.
"I'm not too happy with what some of the players have said," Daly said. "Without him our tour would not survive as what it is when Tiger plays. I just hope for him and [wife] Elin that they get through it."

In Sundays paper a local sports writer quoted what writer Dan Jenkins wrote back in I think 2001.
"I never thought I'd ever see a greater shotmaker than Hogan or a greater winner than Nicklaus, but I have. It's Tiger. Not that I still wouldn't want Ben to get the drive in the fairway for me for my life. But Tiger makes all those other slugs out there today look like they don't even know how to play. We're talking about a truly remarkable athlete here. Something the game has never seen. Only two things can stop Tiger--injury or a bad marriage."

Tiger Woods Admitted to Hospital as OD
Posted Dec 8th 2009 12:44PM by TMZ Staff
Tiger Woods was admitted to Health Central Hospital the day after Thanksgiving as an overdose.
Sources connected with the hospital tell TMZ the admissions chart lists "OD" and that he was having trouble breathing.
We're told the fifth floor of the hospital was put on lockdown when Tiger arrived. Tiger was admitted under an alias -- William Smith. His wife, Elin Nordegren was by his side.
As we first reported, Elin gave paramedics two pill bottles at the accident scene -- we now know the prescriptions were for Ambien and Vicodin. Tiger was in and out of consciousness, snoring at the scene, and our sources say he clearly appeared to be under the influence of something -- not alcohol.
We're also told doctors used a breathing tube to assist his respiration.
We're also told hospital officials changed Tiger's alias after a few hours to another alias because they feared people would find out he was there.

Tiger Woods Lays Low as Derek Jeter Loves Life
In a promotional video hawking The Cliffs at High Carolina, the first American golf course designed by Tiger Woods, The Man himself gets personal on matters that, according to him, should remain private.
“With a wife and two kids, your perspective in life changes,” says Woods, whose personal life has become tabloid fodder. “I want to have my kids experience something like this. I want to be able to bring them up here and feel safe, feel secure, and enjoy running the trails and being a part of nature. Your priorities start changing and evolving once you have a family.”
Listening to Woods prattle on about changing perspectives and priorities illuminates why Derek Jeter, who at age 35 is closer to retirement than rookie, is single. Still.
Baseball is Jeter’s priority. Pinstripes are his perspective. He’s aware of the changes that come with commitment and he isn’t prepared to make them. Not yet, anyway.
The very best athletes are different from their teammates and opponents. More is expected. More is required.
Anyone who has ever worn a wedding ring knows that things do, indeed, change. Add kids and they change even more. That’s true for everyone, including iconic athletes like Woods and his fellow Nike Inc. endorser Roger Federer, who said as much after the birth of his twin girls.....

Sounds like Jeter has much better taste in women.
