(2013) John Daly on Feherty Full Interview 

Wife and I were in Vegas, Caesars palace back in 2005, Drinking and gambling, saw John Daly at the bar. Asked him for a pic. He asked us to sit down, we chatted for a bit he covered our liquor and food bill and he wished us good luck. He was a true gentleman and very humble.

“Never thought about just changing the channel?” Wow wish more people thought like this

Hopefully JD pulls through this cancer diagnosis. We are all rooting for you buddy!!

John is a Genuine human being. No finger pointing, no whining or complaining. He’s an open book and we love him for that!..GOD BLESS U!!!!

John’s great redeeming quality which people absolutely love him for, is his natural transparency. The man is real. And now he’s coming into a nice time in his life, the best time, the best years of his life, when can now spend some time reflecting upon those great memories of his, those great achievements, which will keep him going forever.

John is a national treasure we must protect him at all cost.

JD's honesty and openess about the struggles he has faced is why the people love him. He is one of the most talented golfers we have seen but he relates to the avergae person. He loves golf and he enjoys his life. He is humble and that's why he certainly is my favourite player.

JD was and still is a breath of fresh air. Be well Sir and prosper. Thank you very much for the pleasure you have given me!

Two of my all-time favorites. Thanks guys

Many years ago my dotor told me to stop smoking, drinking sugar drinks with spirits and begin exercising. If i introduce alot more fruit and vegetables and less processed food my kidney health will not subside. My missus told me that i had my time drinking and that it was time. For me it was easy , you see people love you and want you to live with them. If you're still doing it into your fifties then what have you learnt . Surely you can see the light by then...surely. good luck John

Amen to you both! Two honest good ole boys,..inspirational to another good ole boy,..thxs

Golf made sure there was never another John daly. But in reality. There never could be. The one and only. Great person.

I love Daly. Awesome guy, Awesome player. This man understood that people are paying money to be entertained. Want nothing but the best for JD

Means a lot to come home from yet another long day at work, to see a new JD video up. Thank you Mr. JD for your astronomical contribution to the human race. Best wishes to you and your family. Godspeed my friend.

I watched John hit a bad pull drive to the left on the 9th hole, 1998 PGA at Sahalee. A severe dogleg left, John was so far left we couldn't see him from the back of the green. Suddenly, a ball landed about 10 feet from the pin. John hit an 9 iron, 168 yards, around a large tree with a 40 yard draw. He made the birdie putt.

Daly is the ultimate missunderestimated Man ever. So glad I stumbled across this beautiful interview. What a treasure he is...

Love this guy, he is what he is, praying for you John!

Great, really enjoyed this. Both Daly and Feherty are hilarious.

Two of the most controversial (=interesting) guys in the game. Excellent! I don't know when this interview was recorded, but for JD and Feherty both, to be so apparently real, is very nice to watch. To hear, to see. This is a great interview. I have met very few celebrities in my life, but I attended a professional snooker tournament in England in Oct '17. I had Players' Lounge access at that event courtesy of a Mr Mark King, and met many of the top professional players. It was a thrilling experience, especially the time I was given just in conversation by Stuart Bingham and John Higgins. So gratefully appreciative that they took the time, and JD is right, they are also just people too, ah, nice to meet you, and thank you 2 ways for your applause and back at ya for your realness. Cheers.

You will never know how much you are loved john

John is a legend. An American icon. I've been trying to emulate that swing for years. But I'm lacking the talent he was dripping with. Nobody got screwed harder by the game than JD. Name another player who deserved a Ryder Cup chance and was skunked harder than JD.

He makes me believe in my ability to smoke and drink until i hit a fairway. Works every time.

That was an awesome interview. Amazing how many childhoods are so similar. Thanks John.

Great interview, really enjoyed it, thanks for posting.

Such a super interview. These two are great together and so funny. Loved it! John Daly will always be my most inspirational player ever. No wonder JD has so many loyal fans.

Love this guy. One of the most talented to ever play this game.

Hey, just wanted to say that you are loved more than you could ever imagine, no matter what is going on in your life. Life can be incredibly hard, but we are blessed so much by our Lord and savior. The people in your life, the phone or computer you’re reading this on, and the simple act of breathing are all huge blessings. Don’t focus on the negatives, or what has or could go wrong. Focus on Jesus and the many blessings He gives us every day. Smile and take a breath. God’s got it figured out already, and is taking care of you. He has never let you down, and won’t start now. He’s coming back. Are you ready? God bless. God is so beyond amazing.

Through the good times and bad I have always loved and a fan of Big John. And I always will .

This guy is the best ,the real deal.

You will always be my #1 golfer John

Another great interview. Love your show, David!

John and Bubba are my favorite all time golfers

Hang in there JD, cancer never met an adversary like John Daly!

The first driver I bought was a lion! I played a little before that and had been fallowing you for ever. Now I got 15 years on the course holding every grounds/assistant/superintendent job there was. Thanks for giving me a love for the game and a respect for the course. Lotta love john! ❤

I'm not even normally a golf fan but I grew up in St Andrews and I was revisiting other golf videos and landed on Daly and Roca in St Andrews in 1995 and then I landed here... and I'm finding your guest here Daly a fascinating human being and I'm really liking your channel - subscribed immediately - the conversation is fascinating and the humour is putting a big smile on my face.

John Daly is a amazing man ! Just a real dude .

I remember watching JD playing in LA Open in 1992. Phenomenal striker of the ball - terrifying power. Around and on the greens, incredible touch. So glad he got some majors.

you go John,my hero.

Big John is a great guy with a few demons in the shadows.. the demons have had their take on his marriages, his finances and his health but they have not (and can not) touch his soul! Love this guy!

I absolutely LOVE JD. One of the most honest and beautiful human beings probably ever. If anyone can beat the C word, it's John. JD and Tiger are the reason why I started playing golf. God speed my dude. God speed.

I love your comment “I don’t have to be sober for the rest of my life, I just have to be sober today”. I have shared that with so many people. This interview with John and the one with Tom Watson may be the most insightful and meaningful of all of your many interviews.

fathers should take a good look, this is how you affect your children. john is the product of his father's upbringing and it took him a lot of wasted years to recover. imagine john with a long successful career. i love his new outlook and i hope that john uses what he has left to be the good man he really is.

John Daly is the GOAT in my book. I really want him to heal up and get back to playing the great golf he knows.

Great interview and the honesty is refreshing

John is so humble. He doesn`t tell you the athlete he is. Watching the Superbowl and drinking a 12 pack is intense! At least 12 times getting up from the recliner, and racing to the refrigerator for a beer and hitting the john to drain one and then get back so as not to miss commercials. It`s grueling and takes training.

Man, was needing something to watch tonight and thought of this for some reason. Looking at Daly's eyes, he was lit for this interview. You can tell it, and that makes me like his authenticity even more for it.

Beautiful thank you!

I followed Daly/Scott at the Kemper years ago and couldn't believe how fast they played the course. In one motion, he would drop the cigarette, place the tee/ball down and start the back swing, then slay it 300+ yards down the fairway, then pick up the cigarette and start walking. Incredible!

what a great interview on both counts, we all have our failures...

My favorite player. Just a great regular guy.

This was a great interview. JD is real people. Wish him all the best

The best intierview anywher period. Good work Feherety, Daly is my favorite sports personality ever.

Great interview.

The mural was great...the second one.

Two top blokes. Pleasure to watch.

We love you John Daly, because you’re real! We all have struggles.

JD is just a great dude !!! Been a fan since he came on the tour and have wished him nothing but the best ever since. !!!!!

seen daly at honda classic im still amazed!

And despite everything, I love John Daly - LEGEND. Lives his life and that is AMAZING. Get over the cancer John, I am rooting for you. Golf needs you. \

Here we are 2013 he’s on a roll !!!

Love Daly !!!!

This was so enjoyable to watch. Both have been thru hell, but are still able to talk about things that most of us try to forget.

so Daly playing in local men's league here in Clearwater FL a couple years ago, waiting to join senior tour...I ask guy who saw him "was he on range warming up"? "no" he replies, "he was in the bar drinking"....ahh, that's what I've missed all these years in my game, true story

12/26/2023, Some of the greatest pearls of wisdom and fact arre imbedded in this 43:24 video. I admire both of these men. And yes David I too at one point in my life " it has been 35 years since my last confession." The lessons these men have received before learning and accepting to give makes this a great commonality of man video that reaches into the depths of my being to awaken my heart.

Keep going big john

There is no doubt he knows who he is. Always impressed to find people who are unapologetic for who they are.

Praying for good health and many victories ahead, God Bless

Loved it John ! God bless ! Love T-roy

Wow!!! John looks so good!!! Rooting for u always!!

Indeed. Talk about a real interview. No fake news here.

Two of my favorite people.

I know what it's like to be ridiculed for where you grew up. I was raised in Stuttgart. In Doctoral school one of my professors told me to my face that I was the product of a deprived (Arkansas) culture and I didn't belong there. I changed my major to a more difficult one and graduated with honors. He basically left in disgrace. Even so, that sort of scar stays with you for a lifetime and it comes back to haunt you from time to time. You go, JD.

Amazing informative

I pray every day God removes evil from the earth. I pray John Daly gets a full body healing. I respect him because he has been himself every day. He did it his way and still does in 2024

Fascinating..

My favorite golfer as a kid he got me golfing Tiger got my friends into it !!! Love it

What a man ,love you JD 👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍

Jesus let the man speak. I don’t want to hear you I want to hear Daly!

I hope your doing ok Mr Daly. I love watching you play golf.

We’re all human... no one better than the other.

This guy is absolutely amazing and what's even more impressive is is how he carried his own style

WOW on the painting.

Daley is the love child of happy Gilmore and Kenny powers

John is a great man I love him and always will. Stay strong JD.

Great show. Period.

Such a wonderful character

His life was an open book, and that's gotta be hard because you're trying to please everybody. Thats a lot of pressure. And of course the media can be brutal. So to survive all that is a testament to John Daly's real character. I wish him all the best. What an amazing player he was. One of a kind.

Thanks Daly

My favorite golfer and person!

Hi,still have your driver sr (John daily )for memory .hope you can sign it one day.thank you

You got this Long John

All American guy. God gifted him, prob practiced some, very fun to watch because he takes BIG swing, perfect balance and tempo......and the sound of the driver is like a shotgun blast. BOOM!

Seriously?! Daly actually tried playing while suffering from withdrawals… that’s incredible! 😳

After 9/11 when everybody was uptight John cut through woods from 10th to 11th tee and just him and me as spectator almost came head on ! Strange atmosphere those days kinda!

“There’s times that you died already but just forgot to fall over”. Wow

John Daly is a great golfer and we appreciate that he had his struggles but never gave up his love of golf.

Insults to John are uncalled for!!!

love John Daly, he's an icon of the sport, a gem of culture

Nice swing Dave

Gotta love John Daly
