The two-time major championship winner is among the renowned name in golf. Maybe he is more famous for doing off-the-course than playing competitive golf. Apart from being a five-time PGA Tour winner, the American professional is also a father to three lovely kids. His three children include John Patrick Daly II, Sierra Lynn Daly, and Shynah Hale Daly.

Shynah is the eldest of all the three and was born on 10th June 1992. Followed by Sierra, born on 1st June 1995, and the youngest of them all, Little John, was born on 23rd July 2003.

The youngest of all three kids Little John played golf with his father at the PNC Championship several times. The duo even won the event in 2020, and Daly’s son even plays college golf for John’s alma mater Arkansas. It seems he is following in his father’s footsteps.

The 1991 PGA Championship winner recently spoke and admired all of his three kids in a Youtube video. PGA Memes uploaded it, and in the particular video, John gave a tour of his Arkansas home to the host.

He added, ” He wants to redshirt, that’s great concentrate on golf and concentrate on the school and play all the tournaments that you can in the summer, he wants a degree. That makes me even more proud.”
