New Daly on the golf scene - John Daly's son among the top

His father, John Daly, won two majors but, above all, caused a stir with an unhealthy lifestyle, colorful clothes and a scandalous life off the course. Now his son, John Daly II, has introduced himself to the golf world.

The 22-year-old American is still an amateur, but that doesn't stop him from having a good feel for the PGA Tour competition in Puerto Rico. After three rounds, the younger Daly is tied for eighth at nine strokes under par – a position he shares with the Swedish duo Jesper Svensson and Pontus Nyholm.

American Ricky Castillo leads at 12 under par heading into Sunday's final round.

The very best players on the PGA Tour are not in Puerto Rico, but are playing the money-making Arnold Palmer Invitational in Florida.

John Daly, 59, won two majors during his career: the PGA Championship (1991) and the British Open (1995).
