Meanwhile, hearing this, the host Graham Bensinger was flabbergasted. He couldn’t believe that he could finish all these things in a sitting that too pretty easily. Furthermore, he asked Daly about the diet cokes. It is said that John Daly drinks about 515 gallons of diet coke a year.
“I used to drink anywhere from 12 to 20 diet cokes a day,” said Daly. “I used to go to McDonald’s three to four times a day. To me, they always had the best fountain diet coke. You know I don’t drink water. I hate water. I cannot stand drinking water.” Hence, to compensate, he gets in around 12 to 20 cans of diet coke each day, which is insane.
