Daly rolls an 11 on final hole at Bay Hill

ORLANDO, Fla. – John Daly took four swipes at a ball in the rocks and made an 11 on the 18th hole Sunday – and it still wasn’t his highest score at the Bay Hill Invitational.

Seven years ago, Daly hit six balls into the water on the par-5 sixth hole in the final round and made an 18.

Daly started his final round on the 10th hole and was even par for the day when he came up short of the 18th hole. He tried a flop shot that landed in the rocks that separate the water from the green. Instead of taking a penalty drop, Daly tried to play out of rocks.

Four swings later, the ball moved only 3 inches.

He took a drop back where he started, pitched to 15 feet and two-putted for an 11.

Later in the round, Daly hit his tee shot into the water on the sixth hole and reloaded on the tee. This time, however, he played his second shot so far to the right that it caromed off a mesh fence and an out-of-bounds stake. He wound making a 15-footer for bogey to limit the damage.

It was at least the sixth time in his career that Daly, a former PGA and British Open champion, has made a double-digit score during a PGA Tour-sanctioned event.
