John Daly stated via Twitter that he is not retiring, even though he told the Golf Channel on Friday that “I’m done.”

Daly said that financial difficulties are impairing his ability to focus on his golf game, leading to the frustration that caused him to suggest he was retiring.

Daly addressed the situation through a series of Twitter posts…

“To ALL my Fans—my financial situation is putting me where I cannot focus on my game, I’m putting too much pressure on myself,

“the few sponsors that I have are great but it’s not getting me thru these times–i want to thank my fans throughout all these years &

“I don’t like to continue to embarrass myself– maybe my mind may change down the road but right now i don’t have the money

“to be on the tour. My game has never been the same since my rib injury during the Honda Classic in 2007. God Bless! JD”

Daly will try to make his 1st cut of the season at the AT&T National Pro Am which is set to begin in 9 days.
