5 Facts About Americans at The Open 🏆
Fuzzy Zoeller Once Bet $150K That John Daly Wouldn't Live to 50

Thursday marked John Daly’s 50th birthday—and potentially a major payday.
The veteran golfer posted the following tweet Thursday morning, which some might have taken as a complete joke:
Well, there is some history here.
According to USA Today’s Josh Peter, former pro golfer Fuzzy Zoeller once bet Daly that he wouldn’t live to see his 50th birthday.
“Fuzzy’s going to owe me 150 grand,’’ Daly said on Wednesday. “I don’t know if he remembers that bet or not, but I’ll get that cash from him hopefully.’’
The bet came during a lunch-turned-late-night-adventure the week of the Masters, but Daly—perhaps in the spirit of living—doesn’t plan on holding Zoeller to it.
“I’ll just have him give me a free bottle of his vodka," Daly quipped. "That’s about it."
