- (Original airdate: 01/11/06) John Daly talks about hating exercise and healthy foods, his unusual past sponsors, and his tricked-out golf cart. Watch more classic clips @ conanclassic.com.
He's the average weekend golfer who hit it farther than everybody and won Majors. That's why everyone loves him. He's a normal guy who was just really, really good.
Lol he's a bit better than "the average weekend golfer" but
@@asapbrook6257 He drinks beer and plays barefoot. That was my point.
Didn't he win a championship at Arkansas in golf
@@markmateer4346 he won 2 majors on the PGA tour.
He is what the sport should be more like, in my opinion.
Pure example of how golf is a mental game. Being content with yourself and not overthinking is the key to a good swing
Actually you need both. It doesn’t matter if your content with yourself but are lined up 30 degrees left, come over the top and leave the club face open. You’ll just contently watch your ball slice into the woods
@@hlf_coder6272 If you're in a good state of mind you'll feel that before it happens my man.
First you have to perfect the swing which is the hard part
@@hlf_coder6272 That's the thing, talent is going to eliminate that far before mentality or mechanics
Golf a mental game? Hahaha hahahaha
Hahaha
You hit the ball with a golf club and then you go look for it. And then you hit it until it goes in the hole.
Mental games
John Daly is a two time major winner - hes no joke. Back in the day he really hit it hard, but he also had a great short game. He’s a very talented individual. So while it does seem like he doesn’t care much about the game, he is still a professional golfer.
In his prime, he had incredible touch to go along with those long drives. Tough combination to beat when firing on all cylinders.
If he had been given attention to his body then he would have made it longer
Spot on analysis cheers
Watched him at the Irish Open in 1999, unbelievable touch on the greens.
He can putt the lights out. AS the old saying goes, 'drive for show (which he did), but putt for dough' - and he putted as well as anyone in his prime. All touch and no fear. He'd take one look at the putt and then get on with it. Fun to watch.
Daly is one of the most naturally talented golfers ever to play, no question.
bubba watson is another non-technical golfer
The curse of the gifted. His talent is top shelf
@@shaneb395 yep Bubba Watson absolutely...daly, Bubba, and I'd throw mickelson in there too as just pure talent
Absolutely. His ball striking was incredible
You must be drinking right now.
As close to a real happy gilmore as were ever going to get
Yep. The Chris Farley of golf! Lol
The guys was drinking like 40 beer a day !
@@gabrielhamel8 then hed go drink some whiskey
lol
More of a Tin Cup McCavoy.
I love john. So genuine. Never acting, always being himself.
Daly is the working-mans favorite player, always has been.
Nah, that title goes to Arnold Palmer. There’s a reason they called him The King.
@@Wally17. Nah, that title definetly gies to Daly lol
@@Wally17. maybe in 1967
John sued the PGA to be able to golf barefoot and lost. Then he tried to use the disabilities act. Lost again. He cracks me up.
I was thinking of trying that at work as a disabled vet lol. But I know they'd probably just fire me and hire......Someone else.
Don't let this man's physique fool you, John Daly had great flexibility and power, and he was the longest driver on the PGA Tour (yes, he hits the ball further than Tiger).
Even when he gained weight he could bring that club back and around. Amazing. A showman. He made golf fun.
He's amazing, but let's not downplay Tiger's length, Tiger was every bit as long as Daly minus 2 or 3 yards.
@@BatMan-cq8gq calm down. Nobody down played Tiger. Don't need to ride his nuts
@Deco Electra wow. Who asked
@@DmanGaming you got got bro lol
haha how could you not love this guy? I dont know anything about golf or watch it but this guy is awesome
I agree. Same here lol
I'm a golfer and I agree....John Daly is the most realistic golfer who just happens to be better than most. Probably the type of guy who gets super excited for the weekend to play a round with the bois and doesn't get overly competitive/intense about it.
This was an old interview 2006 if you read the video description.. Been a long long time since Big John won a major.....
But something big just happened in his career... he and his son just won basically what felt like a major at the PNC championship father-son.
John and his now 18 year old son, little John or John 2, who is currently a freshman playing at University of Arkansas golf team just beat Tiger Woods and Charlie Woods to win the father-son championship...
Big deal
@@Silenced_by_nazi_youtube
I
U
He looks like Steve Irwins son fat and grown up 😂😂
John Daly is THE definition of a pro golfer. A drunk dude chasing a ball while puffin on a ciggy lol
👍
maybe not the pro part, but he's definitely the definition of a golfer.
@@GFkilla17 Professional just means it’s your job. He’s a pro by definition
It's cool to see Daly genuinely laughing at Conans jokes when he is poking fun at John. Loved watching him play. Definitely my top 10 favorite golfers of all time.
He got him back too so it makes it that much better
@@_K_W he has a very calm almost buddhist non shit giving demeanor like he could get along with just about anybody
Next time at the course, don't order an Arnold Palmer, ask for a John Daly
I think he has a name-brand version of it now. All in one-bottle.
Damn right
When my golf friends can't drink and play well, I joke and say they dont have an inner John Daly!
That would be a bottle of liquor and a carton of cigarettes.
I took my son to Bay Hill, he was 19 and asked the bartender if they know how to make an Arnold Palmer.😁
John Daly’s approach to golf is what NASCAR drivers approach used to be 25-30+ years ago.
John Daly is the Tim Richmond of golf.
Back when auto racing was fun to watch.
Spot on, remember guys smoking in the car reminds me of Tim Richmond, super talented NASCAR driver who had a good time doing it. Tea he may have been a little too carefree sometimes but the stigma that came with AIDS back then, kinda like the dreaded unvacinated kung flu virus people
Grip it and rip it?
Jimmy Spencer
John Daly is a national treasure. You might agree or disagree with him, but he won't BS you. In the early 90's, the "grip it and rip it" was his thing, he was the first player to hit a 630-yard hole in two shots. But besides his ability to absolutely crush it, he was very savvy with his short game, especially his short wedges. He just lines up and hits it, no big thought, one of the most natural swing players ever. I believe Tiger when he said Daly is one of the most naturally talented players he's ever seen. Tiger had to work for it. If Daly put that level of work in, he might have won as much as Tiger did.
i love people who are laid back like him. he goes easy on himself but hes still self aware
he has a very calm almost buddhist non shit giving demeanor like he could get along with just about anybody...looks like he's got thick skin and it's hard to offend him or piss him off
as conan speaks daly just calmly stares at him yet is highly attentive...dude is genuinely ok with himself and his environment...a lot can be learned from studying this character...he drinks alcohol...he smokes...he likes a lot of sex...dude is just doing whatever is normal and natural and appears to be in the present moment and not lost in thoughts of past or future
"Sir, you are no gentleman" "Oh yeah, well I'm no doorknob either"
I watched JD a couple of times and what surprised me was his short game. His touch round the greens is fantastic.
John Daly is a legend.
This interview is way ahead of its time.
One man whose works solely made the world of golf and its tent so much bigger.
Freaking love John Daly! He was the only one back in the 90's to average a 300 yard drive on the PGA tour. Hence, "Long John". I am from Arkansas too. =)
No one cares where you're from
@@Underpantsniper who hurt you.
@@Jabroni94 Your mum!!
John is from California
@@chadmurphy6803 he lives in Dardanelle Arkansas next to his golf course
John's extremely generous and a good guy
JD out drove Tiger in his prime, nobody else was doing that
Are you referencing that one time?
Insanely talented man. You can’t copy him.
And Daly’s good too
If he had trained and taking care of him self, he would have won a lot more. He's so talented!
His son is super good.
John could have been as big as Tiger or Phil, but he just didn't give a rip about that stuff.
Daly will always be a cult icon for fans of the 90's. Daly was the one who lit the flame for the explosion of golf, Tiger just threw the gas on it.
@@ccc0909 totally agree ... When he won the PGA the game really exploded for the blue collar working man. Then came Tiger and made the game cool for everyone
@@patriothippie5881 most definitely, it showed any blue collar worker has a chance
Tiger once said "Daly if I had your talent I'd be doing exactly what you're doing". This is while Daly was drinking at the bar. Tells you a little something as to how good he was.
john daly is the only reason i was ok with my family grooming me as a golfer.
Haha
Wish I got groomed to be anything...
@@miracles4u you were.
John Daly is one of the most talented people to ever pick up a golf club.
His natural hand-eye coordination is off the charts. He literally just plays like that without thinking. Lmao
I thought he was Steve Irwin's son all grown up for a moment...
Haha
With a few too many fosters as well lol
you mean he's not?
looks like a fat Steve Irwin
I thought the same thing
I can vouch for this. He plays at my club every week in the winter and he usually wears a baggy over-sized tee shirt, shorts and bare feet. Hilarious.
OG rockstar . God bless you JD the game is better with you in it.
You have to love John Daly! Most down to earth celebrity there is.
The most laid back and joyfull person ive ever seen...he just enjoys life...simple as that...
John daley made me interested in golf. He is just so real and honest. And he is super relatable. Just a good fucking guy.
A John Daly movie would be awesome!!
Absolutely, who would you cast to play him?
Danny mcb ride do a good job
We got one it’s called happy Gilmore.
Hopefully, John would play himself!
“I like to promote fast play.”
Cut to John Daly picking up a cigarette and proceeding to tear across the fairway at 50 miles an hour.
All I got from that was Conan drives a '91 Taurus SHO.......Awesome!
I drove a 93 SHO years after it's prime. Gave me nothing but problems, luckily my parents were willing to trade it in for the cash for clunkers and gave me their malibu instead. That SHO was the worst car I have owned by a lot. I did get some compliments on it though.
In the words of Tiger Woods, "if I had John Daly's natural golf skills I'd never practice again."
Terrance Howard just chilling thinking about geometry next to John.
It's so refreshing to come across a different drummer in a sport with rigid traditions. No need for pecs, Conan, your talent overrides.
Yeah, because the underlying anti-formalism of Daly's words haven't been racing across Western society--much to our detriment--for centuries.
@@actuallicensedteacher1846 lol k
@@actuallicensedteacher1846 Are you that proud of being a teacher? 😂 Too funny.
Did Bobby Hill eat Steve Irwin?
I directed a couple of commercials with him and for one of them he was putting with his guitar, and he had so much fun trying to make that putt with a guitar lol.
He reminds me of Chris Farley and Adam Sandler having a baby together! 😆 LoL
Who happens to be a golfer
When Chris Farley used to play Giuliani's son on SNL he looked a lot like this
He kind of reminds me of Dennis Rodman as far as just coming into a sport and being different and not being afraid to break boundaries and expectations. I love those kinds of athletes. Not trying to fit in or impress, but leaving an imprint and kicking ass while doing it.
Like John, Dennis was also amazingly gifted at his sport naturally. Like there are multiple stories of him being drunk as fuck and getting no sleep and showing up to practice and out-hustling everybody on defense.
I think MJ used to say the only reason Rodman wasn't putting up triple doubles every night was because he just didn't give a shit about scoring points, which sounds ludicrous but this is also Dennis Rodman we're talking about here lmao
@@skippythealien9627 Also Dennis Rodman was apart of nWo and when you’re nWo, you’re nWo 4 life
@@skippythealien9627 But Dennis Rodman worked 100x harder at his sport than Daly did
Knew John when he was a kid. He wasn't from my home town, but his grandmother was and she lived about 2 blocks from our family when we were just kids......John and I are about the same age. John use to spend summers with his grandparents and we met while riding bikes on our block. We got into a lot of trouble together..........throwing eggs at cars, etc. Haven't seen him since we were just kids. Wonder if he remembers those days.
Thats awesome. I'm sure he remembers!
Bullshit haha very vague
These are the comments that make appreciate the internet sometimes
Love this guy, very honest.
Such a special talent. Wonderful eye hand co ordination. Did not really make the most of his gift for as long as he could, but had a great time and is happy with his life.
Good on yah John. You were so exciting to watch. Cheers from Perth Western Australia.
it's actually cool that Conan has a Taurus SHO
he was naturally gifted. to achieve any precision on a swing that hard, he basically coiled his body and wound up on the backswing, requires immaculate timing. even for a player of his ability it created inconsistencies, that's why you don't see a drive like that often. he could pull it off, but no golf teacher this side of the globe will advise you to replicate it. he also had an impressive short game, again, talented in all areas. watching his clips brings me joy time and time again.
peeps don't get that; they say wow this nigga hit the ball hard, way to go. Johnnie (that's what his friends call him) knew how to leave a lay. Even if yer short game is trash, it's better to pitch the ball close to the hole.
It was sure fun watching John in his prime. For 20 straight years (1986 to 2006) I attended the Byron Nelson Tournament in Dallas; usually all four days. So much fun; best party in Dallas. It was also awesome to jump ahead of guys like Daly and Woods, to stand on the ropes at a par 5 tee box. Really incredible to stand within 10’ of those guy and watch them crush their drives.
For sure man I use to go to the colonial and Byron growing up even fist bumped John once after a nice birdie putt I was a little shocked how much shorter he was than I thought considering he always looked like a giant on TV lol
Yeah man if you could get close to the tee on a big par 5 where he was gonna tee off and watch him haul out the lumber, it was a sight to behold. I don’t really know how his clubhead stayed on the shaft. He hit it that hard. Instinct tells you to duck.
"you refuse to work out", damn conan he just told you he walks like 7 miles a day when he's at work while you're at a desk. Give him some slack.
Were you not listening...John hates slacks....lol
50 in a golf cart sounds incredible
Love how he gives the middle finger to the snobbery of golf!
“All my exes wear Rolexes”
John Daly
Priceless 🤣
"My lil bling bling" - John Daly
One of my favorite all time golfers. It was awesome to see him in the field at the PGA Championship this year
He was keeping up with the competition too. Dude is not human!
looked like SantaClaus
@@phillp7777 Yea, with a birdy on the first hole!
In my second year of playing a Golf instructor criticized my "baseball" swing. Then I hit a Hole In One.
Just scored my 3rd hole in one the other week 👍
You can play golf 500 ways.
Man who plays golf for the fun of it, and happened to win 2 majors on PGA. Incredibly talented.
I love the people that conan team picks for an interview
Conan is so good. He totally helped JD be the man here.
Daly is a man who is completely comfortable in his own skin and has nothing to prove to anyone. thats why i like him so much. It's a true virtue to live life in such a way.
Love this Dude , So down to Earth and Real
i watched him maybe during the 2004-2005 masters practice round. he hit a hole in one in one of the par 3s. we all went nuts as if it was the real tournament. great times. not exactly sure that date.
If he worked as hard as Tiger did he would be one of the greatest ever! So much natural talent. Love Johnny!
that's the thing, i don't think he gave a shit about being the greatest ever. he just loved to play golf lol
that's the best situation in life...when you go around knowing (not feeling, knowing) that you have nothing to prove to anyone lol
@@skippythealien9627 I wish that feeling for both of us. So much self-contentment that we do things for ourselves and not to please people.
I never played golf yet but this seems like the kind of player I’d emulate my game, on & off the green, from.
John is the closest we will ever get to a real life happy Gilmore he blast balls of the tee and his short game is unbelievably good
Gotta love Big John.😂
dear lord the DRIP! this was 06' he was ahead of his time
I’ve heard he’s super down to earth and he definitely seems like it here, love this guy
Imagine a fit, trained and sober Daly backing up that incredible natural talent. He would be unbeatable.
horseshit. wouldn't have helped
You’re looking at it all wrong. A fit, trained, sober (lol can you even fathom) Daly would have gone NOWHERE.
@@enshk79 - But he is riding purely on his exceptionnal talent that he rides on instinct. I understand what you mean.
Heard of him today for the first time, gotta say I love his vibe, seems like a good guy honestly
Sometimes I get down on myself for being so unhealthy, but then I watch a John Daly interview and I feel so much better about my decisions :)
👍😂
Let's be real we don't walk 7 miles a day
@@justinsneed5444 Does he?
@@LRM5195 according to him in this video.
People always admire johns big drives, he’s also a great short game player.
I used to play with a gentleman who had two sons on the tour (you can probably figure out that family name). He said John is a very, very nice guy and somebody the players really like.
Just peep the way John listens to the questions and how he tries to engage the person next to him..
Big John really likes his golf! It's always great to watch him play and interact at games; especially tournaments. Love that guy !
he is the personification of a man happy in his own skin , god bless him.
Theres a Family Guy episode where Chris and Peter go to a sport memorabilia convention and theres a sign out front that says, "Please do not feed John Daly"
I saw Daly play in-person, and I can still remember how his tee shots sounded in the air. It was like a jet flying right by my head.
cool
John talks about the days where he tried to get Tiger to sit down and have a drink with the guys and Tiger, for several days, would say "Thanks John but I need to go workout" or "Sorry John, I need to go hit some balls"... Finally John really got on him and said "Come on Tiger, relax a bit and have a drink with us". Tiger just responded with "John, if I had your talent, I'd be sitting there drinking with you"... Talk about a fucking compliment from one of the greatest players ever.
If there's a happy Gilmore sequel , Jon should be in that movie for sure
Fun thing is that recent research kinda proves the hit it hard and hit it again statement. That research shortly stated: “distance is key” over quality of shots.
Roy "Tin Cup" McAvoy, John Daly and Happy Gilmore walk on to a golf course...
He won the PGA championship, and I quote “ drunk from the first tee to the 72nd green “ super stud
If golf/golfers were more like this guy I feel like wayyy more people would get into it. I know I would at least.
John is what I call "contrary to ordinary"
4:58 killed me. This dude lives a great life.
I like how Conan has the funniest times with laid back people.
A chill, adult version of Bling Bling Boy
"Just depends how hungover I am; I let my caddy look for that"
My man.
Love the guy. You know the establishment hates his approach but he brings in extra audience. Go Big John Go. Speak out for us regular folk.
'If I can find it I just hit it again.''
I love JD.
Could watch this all day long
He's the Larry the Cable Guy of golf.
ive never heard of this guy but i already love him lol
I'd love to see his sign on the 1st tee 'Strict dress code enforced. Private parts must be covered at all times'
John Daly loves the fans. Modern day Arnold Palmer. Arnold loved the fans...
Jd is the Shaq of golf. Just there for the fun. Kobe said if Shaq had his work ethic he would have been the greatest of all time by far.
Tiger said if he had JD talent he wouldn't have to practice so hard.
There should be a class of all sports that uses John Daly's ethos on training, fitness, and general attitude.
He’s a real life Al Czervic… and I love it 😂
