Anthony Kim has been called “the current John Daly” by Australian golfer Robert Allenby after Kim supposively pulled an all night bender the night/morning before the final day of the Presidents Cup this past weekend. Allenby told Golf Week some of his friends saw Anthony walking “sideways” into the hotel around 4 AM Sunday morning. The catch is this was only five hours before Kim teed off against Allenby and Kim whooped Allenby by winning 5 and 3. There is also a report surfacing that Fred Couples asked Anthony to leave a team function earlier in the week because he was all crunked up. Kim is denying that either of these stories is true, but it sure sounds like Kim likes to throw down. I think Allenby is the one who looks like a schmuck considering he got worked by someone who was completely trashed just hours before.
Daly News
Last week we talked about John Daly’s new look and the fact that Daly has definitely slimmed down since his ban from the PGA tour last November after being found drunk outside of a Hooters in North Carolina. Well, things continue to look up for JD because he had his best finish in nearly four years this past weekend with a tie for second place in the Italian Open. Daly has been playing recently on the European Tour, but we will see soon if he can make a successful return to the US Tour in June when his European run of five events ends. The second place finish should boost Daly’s current ranking of 794th in the world.
Welcome Back John!!
John Daly made his return to golf last weekend and was donning a new look. He not only lost a few LBs, but he is now wearing some pretty loud clothing.
Not that John Daly needs any help attracting attention on the course, but he was certainly making his presence known last week in Spain. You might even say he was giving Ian Poulter a run for his money when it comes to fashion-forward ensembles.
Daly wore several styles from LoudMouth Golf’s line of over-the-top pants while he played at the Open de Espana. Wednesday he sported an orange-pink pair, called “Raspberry SureBet-A,” (why, yes, they were) which showed off his newly-slimmed down figure. Thursday he opted for a more subdued black and tan style.
We can only hope that this week he’s planning to wear the “Disco Balls” or better yet the “Aloha Girls” style.
Want to tell Daly what you think of his pants? He’s been twittering about them. (And if you want them for yourself, you can purchase them through Daly’s site and part of the money will go to his charity.)
