Wishing I was golfing now
John Daly has been using wedges at the Sony Open that have square grooves, even though the USGA essentially requires V-shaped grooves.
Long and behold... his wedges are legal, too.
Daly said he was using Ping wedges that he's had since 1986, which he hasn't used on TOUR in nearly 20 years. Dean Wilson also pulled from his garage a Ping lob wedge he said was made sometime in the 1980s.
A USGA official says those Ping wedges, which were made around 1990, can still be used because they were allowed under a settlement when Ping sued the governing body.
