John Daly

Golf

Despite his notable vices, which he has never attempted to hide, Daly has won five PGA Tour events, including two majors. With his grip-it-and-rip-it game, Daly broke through with a victory in the 1991 PGA Championship despite being the last alternate in the field. He won Tour Rookie of the Year that season. Daly claimed his second major in 1995, winning the British Open at St. Andrews. His last PGA Tour win came in the Buick Invitational in 2004.
