John Daly's A Fan - Of The Golf Album

John Daly must have been listening to The Golf Album, because he is all over TGA's parody concept.  At the beginning of the video he says "there's a little golf verse at the end of it" - check it out.   (You should watch the entire video, Long John's patriotic ensemble is breathtaking and the skills aren't bad, considering the mileage on the performer.  But if you must skip ahead, start at 1:57).


There will be more concerning Mr. Daly in a future post.  But, for now, suffice it to say that Daly's musical selection of Bob Dylan's classic,  "Knockin' On Heaven's Door",  and his "golf verse", reveal, at a minimum, a wry sense of humor, given Daly's well-documented personal history.   It may also be said that, despite Daly's best efforts,  Bob Dylan's musical legacy is safe.  (The legacy of Dylan's golf game, should such exist, may be another story).

Speaking of patriotic ensembles, in Ryder Cup history, who is the only American golfer with two major titles to his credit never to have played on our Ryder Cup team?  You are correct, sir.
