John Daly withdraws from Open Championship; Will tee it up at the Barbasol Championship
Days after being denied the use of a cart at next week’s Open Championship, John Daly has withdrawn from the event and will now compete in the Barbasol Championship instead.
Over the weekend, Daly explained on social media how he intended to “give it a go” despite an ailing right leg and not being allowed the use of a cart at next week’s championship. However, on Tuesday the R&A announced that Daly has since withdrawn from the event citing a medical condition.
Replacing Daly in the 148th Open Championship field will be Kevin Streelman who announced on social media that he was informed of the news via email.

Testing Lorem Ipsum
What is Lorem Ipsum?
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
Why do we use it?
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Photos from the 2026 PGA Championship
GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.
The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.

JD needs weight watchers.

JD is a fan favorite, and a past champion so I understand why the PGA of Am granted him a cart. After hearing Fred Funk speak on this on the Morning Drive show on Golf Channel, I agree 100% with Funk and the R&A.
Daly should do as others on tour have done…Tom Watson nearly won the British a year after hip replacement and Funk himself had a knee replaced and that’s the reason they are able to compete.
Daly should do the same and abandon these cart requests to play on tours that require you to walk.

JD is probably not healthy enough for surgery. Not trying to be mean, but he is a walking garbage can. Has anybody here ever seen him consume something with any nutritional value?
