An athlete never just plays for himself when he steps onto the field. The feelings of thousands of other people are also at stake. Because of this, it is often said that a player not only wins trophies or prize money but also many people’s hearts.

John Daly is someone you can’t miss out on so easily. His hair, dress sense, or even his non-country club ethos generate a lot of attention. And his young fan did something so amazing that even a three-time major champion couldn’t help but applaud him.

The PGA Tour’s Ascension Charity Classic is taking place at Norwood Hill Golf Club. 78 elite players are playing in this tournament for a prize pool of $2 million.

The two-time major champion Daly has shown the world that, in addition to possessing excellent golf skills, he also has an eye for doing things in a really trending way. Daly was also part of the competition, but due to medical reasons, he withdrew after the first round.

But it appears that Daly’s charm has not yet faded. This little gut reminded everyone that Daly is still the favorite of others. The PGA Tour Champions posted a picture of a young boy masquerading as John Daly. The caption on the post reads: ”Leader in the clubhouse in the 2023 Halloween costume contest 😆 @pga_johndaly’s doppelganger at the @ascensioncharityclassic 👏”

The looks are uncanny and totally remind us of Daly’s young days. But let’s see how fans react to the post.
