POPULAR-BUT-POLARISING golfer John Daly will get ESPN’s 30 for 30 treatment when a documentary on his career and subsequent personal struggles airs next month.
The American will be the subject of the broadcaster’s first 50-minute film of its new Autumn series, which also features shows on Phi Slamma Jamma and the Catholics v Convicts football game between Notre Dame and Miami.
‘Hit it Hard’ follows Daly’s meteoric rise in the sport, his instant success — including a breakthrough victory at the PGA Championship in 1991 — and then his struggles with booze, food, gambling, women and depression in the 25 years since.
If the trailer is anything to go by, it will be well worth a watch.
