Daly: Plan to pick me back-fired

John Daly has spoken out about his exclusion from America’s Ryder Cup team, saying the public and press campaign to get him a debut next month probably cost him one.

The controversial former USPGA and Open champion is still waiting to play in the match 13 years after his first major and after a season when he has shown a real return to form. Captain Hal Sutton selected Stewart Cink and 50-year-old Jay Haas instead.
