Golf Writers Want John Daly Disciplined for Tweets About Florida Times-Union Reporter

-- The newspaper reported on March 4, 2010:

"The Golf Writers Association of America has asked the PGA Tour to discipline John Daly for his actions against a Florida Times-Union reporter.

Daly, angry at a story in the Times-Union on Tuesday that revealed some of the contents of his nearly 500-page PGA Tour file, asked his fans on Twitter to call and criticize the writer of the story.

Daly late Tuesday night posted the cell phone number of the Times-Union’s Garry Smits on two of his three Twitter posts, writing in one of them, “here’s the JERK who writes NON-NEWS article ... CALL & FLOOD his line & let’s tell him how we feel.” Smits said he received nearly 100 calls. By late Wednesday morning, Daly had removed all three posts.

The Ponte Vedra Beach-based PGA Tour told the Times-Union it would not comment on Daly’s tweets."
