By Dan Daly

Chalk up another missed green for John Daly. Only in this case, the green he'll be missing is the nearly $272,000 in legal fees a judge has ordered him to pay after dismissing Daly's libel suit against the Florida Times-Union.

For the record, the last time Long John won a check that large on the PGA Tour was in October 2005, when he was runner-up to Tiger Woods in the American Express Championship.

•••

The next time you're trying to defend your honor, John, I'd suggest pistols at 20 paces - or better yet, utility clubs. It's a lot cheaper.

•••

Elsewhere in golf, Vijay Singh offered to help post bail for Allen Stanford, the moneyman charged with bilking investors out of $7 billion. I realize Vijay has an endorsement deal with Stanford's company, but - yikes - could the guy be any more tone deaf?

On second thought, I suppose he could. He could have a logo on his bag advertising Bad Newz Kennels.

•••

A federal magistrate barred Singh from making a contribution to the Free the Financier Fund because Vijay hails from Fiji and isn't a U.S. citizen.

He might not be a U.S. citizen, but as he's shown with Stanford, he's pretty good at taking pledges of allegiance.
