"John Daly During the US waits to tee off on the 15th hole during Pro-Am day at the Canadian Open Golf tournament at St. George's Golf and Country Club"

Mention the name John Daly five years ago, you could describe him as angry, drunk and obese.

But he has since turned his life around.

Ever since he had lap-band surgery in 2009, he's lost 117 pounds, and earlier this year he announced that he was no longer drinking alcohol and claimed he hasn't had a drink for the past two years.

So has his game improved?

In 2010, John Daly made 20 PGA starts, and each time he failed to finish in the top 20. It's also been four years since he's been in the top 10.

"It's unbelievable,"John Daly told The Charlotte Observer. "I'm giving myself the chance to play good. It seems the more I work, the worse I get."

But John Daly isn't going to give up too quickly. He's headed for a four-day outing in Turkey and has plans to play in Australia this year. Still, he hopes to find a way to play in the PGA Tour in 2011 and may have to rely on sponsor exemptions in order to participate in any PGA events.

"You take it as it comes and move on,"John Daly said. "It's just life."
