Had a friend who was a driver for Daly during a golf tournament . Said Daly may have gotten 3 or 4 hours of sleep a night and it darned near killed my buddy . Daly finished in the top ten , and gave my friend a $10K tip . What a guy .

In 7 years clean at 42, i was an addict for 18 years i started with pot and alcohol but went down hard on meth and pain pills, looking back i cannot believe there isnt a recreational drug that i havent done besides heroin. Now i cant stand the thought of even touching anything.

[@krashboombang]

JD, much respect! The interviewer has definitely not walked on the wild side of life.

[@wilfredoramirez728]

I said the same thing I've seen Graham do interview with other like Jayson Tatum but he and a lot of other people don't understand it like JD said you gotta do what it takes you to quit not what other people think !! if it works it works n these interviewers really looking down on him even though they don't have a problem some wish they could do those things n function normally I heard an addict say if I could do cocaine and could function normally I'd do it every day but I can't so I don't but questions about sodas n cigarettes like he was Charlie Sheen or something 😂😂😂

He has a huge soul!! He's like a saint they have there pace and should stick to it. No one will ever understand that. But people like this that change the world in a big way are huge souls that God made different. they can't explain how that there unorthodox approach to life may seem like madness to others but he knows that this is his forward drive and it's that strange way that's natural for them and keeps them winning feeling that they know there odd way of living is what keeps them winning! And when they change because others have convinced them things start to go bad.. I like how john is his own man and doesn't apologize!

[@nathenmunn4242]

There’s always that person that has to make another person look like they are judging someone, when this guy clear has talked about his alcoholism in other videos. It’s ok to point out the obvious, when people are putting themselves in the public spotlight, if a person doesn’t want people talking about them, then they need to stay off on tv, you tube and any other social media platform. Plain and simple. 55 million dollars on gambling. The guy needs to quit alcohol completely, along with gambling, if he wants to live another decade. That’s facts! And it’s ok to talk about it, because he is talking about it, for us to hear, and talk about it.

[@victorkreitner754]

John Daly is the same age as me.I don't drink and smoke like he does, and I have a real healthy diet, but have slightly high BP. It's hard to believe this man can keep going like this without at some point having a medical episode. Yes he stays active, but we're all on a clock in the game of life. Don't get me wrong, I hope he lives to 80-90 years, but as each year is added he will have to alter his habits. Drinking water is important. If he's doing this lifestyle by his 70s I'd be very surprised he doesn't get a warning from the big guy upstairs.

[@rizzsc48]

John Daly is the best. He’s able to drink and not let it affect this life. He’s worth millions. Just proves you can function with alcohol and not let it cause problems
