This Must Be An Oversight...

...because in orchestrating a Robert Allenby apology for Anthony Kim, the PGA Tour did not see fit to have Allenby also apologize to John Daly after Allenby reportedly labeled Kim "the new Daly."

Maybe they're just working on that release and it's forthcoming?

Either way, Daly is taking it okay. Must be the white blood cells working their magic:

But confirming his return to Australia this summer after using stem cell procedures to hasten his recovery from a rib injury, Daly yesterday declined to criticise Allenby.

''I heard a little bit about that,'' Daly said. ''If he's calling Anthony Kim a Daly, at least - who won that match? I think that's all that matters. And who won it all? The US? I'm not gonna bust Robert that bad. A lot of players have said things in the heat of the moment.''

Or had them taken out of context!

How many times have we all read in every golf mag that the current pros are all the same and spend too much time on the game or in the fitness trailer and how cool it was that the pros of yesteryear were so much cooler for playing hung over after sleeping with someone's wife? (sorry about the runon) Either stop telling us how cool it was to have a drinking problem and cheat on your wife or stop idolizing the ancient dbags (but not royal and ancient dbags) that pulled that kind of crap. Be consistent. Criticize all dbag behavior, not just modern dbag behavior.

This would seem to be a minor exchange of comments that took on a life of its own, much to the delight of the parties involved and is now being played up for publicity's sake.

The PGA Tour, AK and Robert Allenby are being talked about on CNN and network news which almost never happens, particularly at a time when the really popular sports are in full swing. The old saying, "even bad publicity is better than no publicity" is more true then ever in this environment. And I think the three aforementioned entities fully realize that and are extending it as much as possible. Fortunately for them the golf scribes are all over it too.

Without a doubt the one who came out looking the best by far in this whole incident is John Daly . His response showed restraint, humor and maturity. Maybe this is the new John Daly. If so the new John Daly is a class act.
