John Daly is currently ranked 76 after the third round of Dick’s Sporting Goods Open. He wrapped the first day with +3. On Friday there was a special concert by a country singer arranged for the entertainment of players and fans. And Daly arrived at the event in a stylish and ‘golfish’ manner.

John Daly arrives at Kenny Chesney’s concert in style!

Daly is taking it cool at Dick’s Sporting Goods and seems to be enjoying the $21 million event rather than chasing the lead. After Friday’s game, the players were given a special relaxation as country star Kenny Chesney, performed at the event. One fan who was attending the concert posted a picture of the golf star and his grand ride to the venue of the concert. Daly arrived at the venue sitting in a golf cart which was only fitting given the occasion. He wrote – ‘Went to a Kenny Chesney concert last night and guess who comes into the pit with a golf cart’.

Surely Daly’s arrival was full of style at the concert as he wanted to enjoy a night of country music kicking off all golf worries.

American country music star Kenny Chesney, who became famous with singles like The Tin Man and Whatever It Takes, is currently doing his “I Go Back 2023 Tour”. And his Greenside concert was at En-Joie Golf Course in Endicott on Friday. Of course, having John Daly and other players there was a special bonus for the fans who got a double treat of golf and music together.

But this surely must be a disappointment for Paige Spiranac who was ditched by Daly a couple of weeks ago for a charity event.

When later a fan asked about why Daly couldn’t make it, Spiranac clarified that Daly couldn’t show up because of an injury and even wished him a speedy recovery. Daly on the other hand seems to be lagging behind the Goods Open tournament but with one day left, he could turn the tables too.
