On the 14th (local time), Daly appeared on the Tucker Carlson talk show in the U.S. and opened up about defeating Woods 29 years ago while still hungover. In 1994, Daly played golf with acquaintances at Sherwood Country Club near Los Angeles, California, and then had a drinking party at the clubhouse bar. At that time, Woods stopped by the bar, and Daly’s group invited Woods to join them twice, but Woods declined and headed to the practice range.

Daly, who drank heavily for about five to six hours that day, ended up playing a round with Woods the next day. Still not fully sober, Daly had his caddie bring him whiskey and cola. His caddie had also drunk heavily the previous day to the point of being very drunk. Daly started drinking from the first hole. He boasted, “To put it simply, I shot 65 that day, and Woods shot 71.”

Daly is the ‘original long hitter’ who ushered in the era of a 300-yard average driving distance per season on the PGA Tour. Having lived a life full of ups and downs, he is called a ‘maverick’ and also known as a ‘bad boy’ due to his rough and ill-mannered behavior. Another nickname is ‘Drinker.’ He loved alcohol so much that he even underwent treatment for alcoholism. Daly and Woods will participate in the family golf competition, the PNC Championship, starting on the 16th, each bringing their sons.
