John Daly has had many obstacles in his professional life. Whether it’s his battles with injuries or struggles with consistency, the Wild Thing has faced it all. However, no matter how higher the scale of hardships reaches in his golf career, they never outshine his troubles outside the course. In one such case from 2015, we look back at when Daly’s former wife sued his current fiancee for breaking their marriage.
The legendary golfer has been married four times previously. He currently looks to tie the knot for the fifth time with Anna Cladakis after meeting her in 2009. However, his relationship with his future wife was not usual.
Sherrie Miller, Daly’s fourth wife and mother of his son John Daly II, decided to sue Cladakis in 2015. Let’s take a look at what unfolded in the Daly household which eventually ended up at the doorstep of the Judiciary Court.

John Daly finds himself an in a love triangle angle
Miller filed the suit at DeSoto County in Mississippi for “Alienation of Affection”. Though the law is abolished in most states, only six across the United States follow the statute. Fortunately for Sherrie Miller, Mississippi was one of them.
John Daly and Sherrie Miller married in 2001 and divorced 9 years later. According to Daly’s ex-wife, the golfer began a relationship with Anna Cladakis in 2007 while they were still married, though separated. Nonetheless, in 2012, the case was dismissed by the court as neither Daly and his fiance nor Miller were Mississippi residents.

However, the ex-wife won the appeal in 2015 because “the alleged sexual activity between Cladakis and Daly within the state of Mississippi, which contributed to the breakup of Daly’s marriage with Miller, constituted a tort committed, at least in part, within this state”. Later, Anna Cladakis moved to the US Supreme Court to dismiss the case.
Nevertheless, her plea was rejected and sent back to DeSoto County. Though it’s been eight years since the fiasco, the recent updates regarding the court hearing remain unknown. Moreover, Daly is yet to marry Cladakis despite being engaged in 2014. Perhaps he must be still waiting for the court hearing.
