'WILD THING' John Daly had fans in stitches when, asked by someone in the crowd how his knee felt, replied: "Like s***."

He was zooming round close to his legions of followers during round one at Bethpage Black in New York.

And asked by one how his knee was doing, a hobbling Daly wearing New York-themed trousers deadpanned: "Like s***."

He then got in his buggy and drove off.

Daly was mocked by Tiger Woods for using a cart.

Woods memorably won the 2008 US Open with a torn ACL, and asked about Daly using a cart, said: "As far as JD taking a cart... I walked with a broken leg, so..."

Daly, who uses a cart on the Champions Tour, where players are all over 50, has osteoarthritis in his knee and has a daily injection for type 2 diabetes.

He was granted an exemption for the buggy under the Americans With Disabilities Act.

Woods required surgery after that win in '08, and Daly hit back: "He got his [knee] fixed for some reason.

"No doctor will replace my knee because of a different type of problem.

"It's hard to explain why. I'm not a doctor. I just try to do what they say.

"Osteoarthritis is a tough thing, brother. If my knee was broke, I would have had it fixed. But my situation is totally different. It’s painful as hell is all I can say. As was Tiger’s, I’m sure."
