My Shot
By John Daly
I think Greg is mad at me because last year I missed a dinner at his tournament in Australia. The dinner was on a Tuesday night. I arrived that morning jet-lagged and fell asleep in my room. Contractually I wasn't obligated to go to that dinner, and I'd never hold something like that against anyone. I had always considered Greg a friend, but now I never hear from him. I understand that the world is founded on "What have you done for me lately?" But I've done a lot of favors for a lot of people. Now, when I could use a favor in return, I'm not getting one, and that's something I won't forget. I've got to get over my disappointment, but it's tough because I enjoyed playing in those tournaments. The money was great, and I always felt as if I did a good job -- except that time I hit the ball over the heads of the fans in bleachers at Peter Jacobsen's event. That might not have been the smartest thing to do. I'm still praying that I might get back to the Masters someday, though that won't happen this year unless I win the Players Championship next week. It's funny how things have changed for me, but I guess I've got to get used to it until I start playing better. John Daly, 34, finished 11th in the Honda Classic.
