664. John Daly, Bad Boy of Golf

When a rookie came out of nowhere to win the 1991 PGA Championship, it catapulted John Daly, then 25, to the height of fame and fortune. His unusual look, powerful drives, and decidedly anti-country club vibe made him a fan favorite - but not an uncomplicated one. His drinking, smoking, gambling, carousing, and four marriages and divorces are a testament to the complexity, as we dive into one of the golf world's most notable figures. Here's that Dusty Slay 5 O'Clock Somewhere routine. Want early, ad-free episodes, regular Dumpster Dives, bonus divorces, limited series, Zoom hangouts, and more?
