John Daly and Tiger Woods
American golfer John Dally has time and again expressed his love for Tiger Woods. However, during a recent media interaction, the 55-year-old went on to change his statement thrice while talking about his fellow countryman.
Dally, who recently won at the ‘father/son’ event of the 2021 PNC Championship, made a special appearance in an episode of the FULL SEND podcast, hosted by Bob Menery, Kyle Forgeard, and Salim Sirur. He shed light on various subjects such as playing with Phil Mickelson, his cancer, and his experiences at the PNC Championship during the one-and-a-half-hour show.
Talking about Woods, Menery asked Daly whether it’s intimidating to play around the 15-time-major champion. His co-host Sirur was quick to inject, saying, “It couldn’t have been intimidating for John Daly. I don’t think so.”
In reply, Long John stated: “I love Tiger Woods. But, no. He doesn’t intimidate me. I love the kid. I loved him.”
“I love Tiger” – Daly
Menery also confronted Daly on the incident from two years ago when Tiger called out Daly for using a cart on Tour. In a statement, Tiger had slammed Daly and the tour’s choice by saying, “I walked with a broken leg, so…”
Responding to this, Daly said, “Yeah, but he didn’t know the facts because the media, ‘the media’, didn’t tell him I had diabetes and I had a bad two knees and my hips out and all this stuff. He apologized to me at dinner the other night. I mean, he’s fine! I love Tiger.”
“I was the first man to say, ‘Hey man, get better and do good.’ And at the dinner, when I was Santa Claus, he says, ‘Man, thank you so much for the texts. It means a lot to me.’ And that meant a lot to me,” he signed off.
