Coolum - Colourful American golfer John Daly has offered some relationship advice to Tiger Woods, saying Woods and wife Elin Nordegren should remain together if they were still in love.
The four times divorced Daly said he had tried unsuccessfully to contact Woods, who announced Saturday he was taking an indefinite break from the sport.
"I feel like if there's anybody in this world, after what I've gone through, the ups and downs, I might give him some advice," Daly said after his third round at the Australian PGA here Saturday.
"I'm in shock over it all, I think a lot of our players are in shock.
"I've tried to get hold of Tiger and his manager but he just didn't want to talk to anybody."
Daly admitted Woods had "screwed up" but said he remained hopeful of a happy ending.
"I pray and hope they both get through it and if they ever need anything from me, both of them, I'll be happy to talk to them because I love them both," he added.
"Everybody has to realise that Tiger Woods is a human.
"He was put on a pedestal as not being human."
Daly said Woods should take as much time away from the game as he needed.
"Take a break, get it together and hopefully those two can stay together for love, not the kids or the money, because it doesn't work that way.
"My heart's out to both of them, I just hope they can make it."
