Daly admits to gamble problem

[hockeytown]

Wow this guy rocks as he kind of like every average joe both in appearance and the way he treats the fans. I was shocked to see he has lost between 50 to 60 million in gambling. This is a pretty neat article but sad at the same time. Thanks to cnnsi.com

I just want to know how he got that much money. He has only won 5 times and I believe his career earnings is around 10 Million or so. I know he gets some endorsements but not that much I would not think.

Daly has been one of the most popular figures on the PGA Tour since he won the 1991 PGA Championship as the ninth alternate. He has five PGA Tour victories and career earnings of $8.7 million. Sounds like his endorsements are paying the rest of the bill...does not say if he is in debt or not but sounded like when endorsement money came in Jan. that he paid off all his debt to get back even...I don't know but sad regardless, he is a real nice guy on the tour with a huge problem.
