Daly Back on Course a Day After Collapsing in Mississippi

CANTON, Miss. — John Daly was out of the hospital and playing golf again Sunday less than 24 hours after he was stricken on the course with what he says was a collapsed lung.

The two-time major champion was taken by ambulance to Baptist Medical Center on Saturday after he collapsed on the 18th tee during an outing at Deerfield Country Club. Daly said doctors ran tests and X-rays but found no other serious problems besides the lung.

"I was having a great time and then suddenly — boom — I'm falling down while on the 18th tee and the next thing I know I'm in an ambulance," Daly said.
