‘Come Out Puking, Baby’: John Daly Explains His Idea of a Perfect Gym

Published 12/30/2021, 8:10 AM EST

John Daly is one of the most unpredictable golfers out there. With that being said, some things we’ll never witness are like unspoken understanding. For example, Daly and a gym are two of the most contrasting words we’ll ever hear. However, he recently explained his ideal concept of what a gym should be like, and, well, it went exactly as you’d imagine.

Not only is Daly not a fan of the gym, but he is also probably one of the unhealthiest athletes. His wild appetite might come as a shock for many, but for Daly, it’s always been like this. The only way he’d partake in any fitness-related activity is when food will be the reward. Even then, he might do a crunch for a bite of a burger or run a meter for a drag of his cigarette. Typical stuff.

When Salim mentions he’s going to go to the gym in order to put on a bit of body mass, Daly feigns shocks at the word ‘gym’. He says, “Now here’s the problem- you gotta get with the John Daly gym-lazium!” Yes, that’s the moment we knew we’d be getting firsthand information of what the 2-time major winner would like to see in the gym.

He elaborates, “There’s a barstool on every treadmill, an ashtray right there for you, a cup holder for your vodka. You got p*rn on TV and topless waitresses serving you. And we’re going to put them all by fitness 24. Come out with a smile or instead, come out puking, baby.”
