JOHN DALY

A documentary about the life of John Daly is to air in just over two weeks’ time – and the trailer for it looks superb.

Aptly entitled ‘Hit it Hard’, the 50-minute film has been produced by ESPN as part of its ’30 for 30′ series, which looks at a variety of people, teams and scandals in sports.

In Daly’s case, where do you start? The two-time major winner, now 50, shot to fame after winning the 1991 US PGA Championship at Crooked Stick – where he started the week as eighth reserve – while he also added an Open Championship title at St Andrews in 1995.

As well as these high points of his career, the documentary also delves into the deep lows of his rollercoaster career, with various discrepancies off the course – including his battles with alcoholism, gambling and numerous brushes with the law.

Long one of golf’s most polarising figures, this is sure to make for a compelling film.
