John Patrick Daly has been a golfer on the Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA) Tour since 1990, having stunned the golf world by winning the PGA Championship as a rookie. He did not win another PGA Tour round until the 2004 Buick Invitational—his first win after 189 tries. Daly spent much of his time during this drought earning a controversial reputation, entering into alcohol rehabilitation centers several times, and winning and losing millions of dollars gambling. Daly has parlayed his fame into success as an entrepreneur, owning a line of clothing and golf equipment, as well as line of wines. He also designs golf courses.
