Apart from two major wins, John Daly might not have had any massive success on the tour. However, despite that, the 56-year-old has still made sure to become one of the most fan-loved players in the golf world. An accomplishment, which has a major contribution from his fancy outfits.

Ever since his debut on the tour, Daly has been known for his strong drives. However, seeing the other side of the coin, he is also known for his class apart outfits, both on course and off the course.
