John Daly is known for his unorthodox style and charismatic personality, and he recently showcased this at the PNC Championship, where he played alongside his son, John Daly II. The PNC Championship is a unique event that brings together golf legends and their family members for a fun tournament. Daly’s partnership with his son added to the excitement, as their bond on the course is always a joy to watch.

In the latest video posted by PGA Tour on X, Daly is seen practicing in a range session at the PNC Championship, but what was unique was the fact that he only played one ball. Daly’s practice session was brief, yet entertaining, as he hit his shots with precision and power. After completing his practice, Daly casually said, “I’m good. That’s enough. I just popped everything,” and walked off, leaving fans in awe of his confidence and carefree attitude.

Back in 2010, Bleacher Report released an article highlighting the reasons why fans adore John Daly, and it’s clear that these factors still contribute to his widespread appeal today. Daly’s unmistakable “Grip it and Rip it” brand, and his bold and fearless approach to the game, sets him apart from his peers. His life, marked by personal struggles, including battles with drinking, gambling, and smoking, has made him more relatable to fans who face their own struggles.

Another fan said, “Show and Go baby”, while this one said, “Only need 1 when you hit it like JD.” This further proves the kind of spell Daly has over his fans. Moreover, many fans were wondering something that, well, at least I was expecting. “Shouldn’t Santa be making toys at the shop? Time’s running…”.  We all know that John Daly is a man of many talents and interests, but who would have thought that he’d make a great Santa Claus? Last Christmas, in 2022, Hooters shared a photo of Daly dressed as jolly old Saint Nick, complete with a Santa suit and hat, and he absolutely nailed the look. The photo, which showed Daly posing next to a Hooters girl, was a hilarious and unexpected holiday treat for fans, and it’s clear that Daly’s infectious personality and sense of humor made him a natural fit for the role of Santa. So, do you think Daly will take home the trophy as an early Christmas present to himself? Let us know in the comment section below!
