John Daly helicopters club into Lake Michigan after carding a 10 on a par 3 at Whistling Straits

HAVEN, Wis. -- Lake Michigan beckons on most holes at Whistling Straits. On a hot summer afternoon, the huge body of water looks particularly inviting.

And for John Daly, after blowing up on the par-3 seventh hole on Friday, the water was calling his club's name.

Daly carded a 10 on the 221-yard par 3 at Whistling Straits. Yep, a 10. He dunked three balls in the water before chucking his 6-iron into Lake Michigan. The club was then retrieved by a little kid in a boat.

Legendary stuff all around.
