56-year-old John Daly is a member of the PGA Tour. He won the US Open and the Open Championship in 1996 and 1995, respectively. He has won victories under his name, but people mostly admire him for his choice of attire and his bold statements.

Daly has been playing golf for over 34 years now. He has been in the limelight throughout his career for personal and professional reasons…mostly personal reasons. Even though he’s a pro, there is still a part of him that feels he didn’t do enough and that his talents were wasted.

Daly believes he had great physical abilities in 90s. But he did not use them, because his mental attitude was not a healthy. It did not help with his game. Especially during the late 90s.

He said, “All the money was coming in, and I didn’t work hard enough at it. I didn’t do the right things to prepare myself to win golf tournaments. You know, that’s definitely on me, and I admit that. But that’s just not the case anymore for me. I’m just kind of a grinder now, but I think my mental attitude is 10 times better than it was in the ’90s.” 

While he did make some errors, he has several notable achievements.
