What is this world coming to?

It’s a sad state of affairs when one of professional golfs most interesting personalities, John Daly is the victim of a cyber attack.

In an exclusive interview with Golf Channel, John Daly revealed Friday that his computer has been hacked and that the culprit was behind bogus postings on his Twitter and Facebook accounts and threats to his children.

He also gained access to his social network accounts as well as his personal email. John Daly’s girlfriend, Anna Cladakis was on Facebook chatting with the guy and he said “If you want this back you know what to do. I will get you and I will get your daughters. I'll steal their identity.'"

Daly said in an interview that aired Saturday on Golf Central, "Other things that were said scared me to death."

The FBI took Cladakis' computer to check for evidence and Daly informed his two daughters, 18-year-old Shynah and 15-year-old Sierra, to close their Facebook accounts.

His Twitter account, @PGA_JohnDaly, is still live but it has been essentially deactivated with just 60 followers and not a single Tweet.

This is pretty disappointing, he was very active with his followership on Twitter, which is pretty rare of PGA Tour professionals and now we’ve lost that life line.

Wonder what he meant when he said “you know what to do..”
