Daly, 52 years old the event in 1995, will be replaced by his American compatriot Keegan Bradley at the 147th Open Championship

"Sorry … I've really tried these last two days to compete and walk, my knee osteoarthritis is unbearable, "Daly, who won his first golf title at the PGA Championship in 1991, wrote on his verified Twitter account.

"It would have been nice to have a basket, but unfortunately it was turned down by our turn committee."

Last month, Daly left the US Senior Open after he left. he was denied permission to use a cart in the championship because of a persistent knee injury that makes walking difficult.
