John Daly has never shied away from sharing details about his life on and off the course, no matter how good, bad, or ugly.
It's that openness and his down-to-earth attitude that Daly credits for making him a fan favorite.
"I don't have any skeletons in my closet," Daly said ahead of the Senior PGA Championship, according to USA TODAY Sports' Christine Brennan. "I'm a guy that's always told them when I screw up. I screw up and I admit it and go on.
"I don't hide anything. There's just nothing to hide with me. I've always just been straight upfront with you guys. I'm not one of those guys that's going to lie to anybody about what's going on in my life. I think it just takes the pressure off of not having anything looking back or anything."
