Team Daly 2nd at PNC despite John Daly’s upcoming knee replacement

Tiger Woods wasn’t the only major champion prioritizing family over being “a little creaky” this weekend at the PNC Championship.

John Daly is scheduled for a full knee replacement Wednesday, but not before a successful showing at the PNC with his son, Little John Daly. Despite the elder Daly’s pending transformation into the “bionic man,” the pair came close to going back-to-back in Orlando.

A Sunday surge from the two-time major champion and the 19-year-old Arkansas player saw the duo post 11 birdies, including five-straight between Nos. 9-13, before closing with an eagle on the par-5 18th.
