John Daly is one of the most fan-favorite golfers on the PGA Tour. Even though John has won only five PGA Tours in his career, he is the most entertaining golfer. Daly was probably the longest driver of the golf ball during his heydays. However, even at 60, he is still a decent driver of the golf ball. John Daly and his son John Daly II recently competed at the 2021 PNC Championship. Moreover, they won the event with a record score of -27. They obliterated the field, especially on the final day as they carded -15 on Sunday. John Daly’s son out-drove him, and there is also video evidence to prove it. JOHN DALY II OUT-DRIVES JOHN DALY AT 2021 PNC CHAMPIONSHIP The 18-year-old follows the same principles in golf as his dad. However, there is more to his game than just long drives. John Daly II is a great putter and has saved his dad throughout the week at PNC by making some clutch putts. During the pro-am event of the PNC Championship, John Daly II even out-drove John Daly from the back tees. Watch This Story: Paige Spiranac Announces a Christmas Giveaway [https://www.essentiallysports.com/golf-news-paige-spiranac-announces-a-christmas-giveaway/] On par 4, hole 10, a fan told John Daly II that his dad is calling who had already hit his tee shot from the front tee. John Daly II picked up the call and asked the distance of Daly’s drive as he wanted to out-drive him. Daly answered he was 91 yards away from the pin. So little John had the target in his mind. He bombed a drive and out-drove his dad by two yards. However, it is interesting to note that John Daly had played this tee from the front tee while his son bombed his drive from the back tees. Hence, the producer asked John Daly what does he wants to say about his son out-driving him. “He should have. He should have outdrove me by two yards because I heeled mine,” said [https://twitter.com/championstour/status/1474119535825408003?s=21] John Daly and zoomed off in his golf cart. This was probably an incredibly proud moment for John Daly to see his son out-driving him from the back tees. Meanwhile, John Daly II is currently playing college golf and has a dream to compete on the PGA tour someday.

<h1>John Daly</h1>
<h2>John Daly 2023: Net worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
John Daly, popularly called, ?Long John?, is an American Golfer who is best known for the driving stance that he takes off the tee. He is as renowned off the field as he is on the field. His electric clothing and his unconventional and quirky demeanor are utterly a media-favourite.

His 1991 PGA Championship win is the most memorable victory of his career. It was this feat from where he first attained recognition. His performance in the 1995 Open Championship, wherein he secured a win over Costantino Rocca, earned him the title of ?Dark Horse.??

In 2006, his performance witnessed a steep decline, and his commercial and sponsorship fame overshadowed his golfing career. His non-golf earnings slowly overtook his earnings from the game. Daly is the only golfer across US and Europe to have won two major golf tournaments without competing in the Ryder Cup.

<h2>John Daly: Early life, Family, Education</h2>
Daly was born to Jim and Lou Daly on April 28, 1966, in Carmichael, California. The family moved to Arkansas in 1970. His father worked as an engineer at various nuclear power plants, and frequently traveled for work. The golf veteran has an elder sister and a brother.

It was in Arkansas when a four-year-old John first found golf after his father gave him two cut-off golf clubs. Daly lived near the 'Bay Ridge Boat and Golf Club', a nine-hole golf course, in Arkansas. It was on this very course that John Daly laid the foundation of his rather prolific career.?

John's childhood idol was Jack Nicklaus, and he worked rather hard to follow in his footsteps. For him, the biggest challenge was hitting perfect shots in every swing, and so birthed his unconventional and legendary backswing. His mantra of 'grip it and rip it' gained immense popularity and was a game-changer for his career.

In 1978, the Dalys moved to Locust Grove in Virginia. He continued his practice at 'Lake of the Wood Country Club'.? All of twelve, he could drive the ball farther than most adult men. He would procure his golf balls from water hazards. Within a year's time at the club, he entered and won the men's championship, which propelled a rule shift in the club and introduced a minimum age criterion in the competition.?

The Dalys again relocated to? Zachary, Louisiana, when John was in the ninth grade. It was in his high school years that John developed an additional interest in baseball and football. During his junior year in 1983, they again changed homes and settled in Jefferson City, Missouri.

Though his interest in baseball dissolved quickly, John was a punter and place-kicker for Helias High School, which won the Missouri state football championship in 1983. He still has a few Helias kicking records under his belt. John won the Missouri State Amateur Championship and led the Helias golf team to the state championship in 1983.
<h2>John Daly: Personal Life and Health</h2>
In 1987, Daly married Dale Crafton. In 1990, they divorced. He remarried Bettye Fulford in 1992. The two had a daughter together named Shynah Hale. Daly married Paulette Dean in 1995, shortly after his divorce from Fulford was finalized. His second child, Sierra Lynn was born on June 1, 1995. In 1999, the couple got divorced. He married Sherrie Miller on July 29, 2001. In 2003, John Patrick Daly II, their son, was born.

He has struggled with numerous health issues over the course of his life - alcoholism and obesity being the mainstay of this battle.
