John Daly recently shot a 'Break 50' episode with Bryson DeChambeau for his YouTube Channel. During the episode shooting, the veteran golfer gave a special gift to the US Open champion.

John Daly is a two-time major champion who now majorly plays on the PGA Tour champions. Bryson DeChambeau is a LIV Golf-associated professional and recently became only the second golfer from the circuit to win the major championship.

On Tuesday, August 13, NUCLR Golf, a popular golf tracking handle on X, shared a video originally posted by brysondclips on TikTok. In the clip, Daly can be seen gifting a box of handmade cigars to DeChambeau.

"I just want to say I love you, son," he told DeChambeau. "You may not smoke cigars, but handmade. Bring them to your friends, and there are lighters that we know."

Fans online praised Daly for his gesture and shared some nice words for the veteran. Here's a look at some reactions:

"Daly is a living legend," one fan wrote.
"Daly is a national treasure," another fan wrote.
"love John Daly like a father," this fan commented.
"Daily is my spirit animal," one fan remarked.
"Daly was blessed with a gift for the game. Shame he never was able to get over his demons in his prime. If he was able to put in the work back then, he would've been a great player," another user opined.
"'Today, I’m gonna teach Bryson how to win the British Open' with a cigarette in his mouth, is one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen 😂😂," this fan wrote.

Why is John Daly's net worth just $2,000,000? A look at a golfer's net worth

Despite being a professional golfer for more than three decades, John Daly doesn’t have a high net worth. As per Celebrity Net Worth, he has a net worth of nearly $2,000,000, largely due to the money he lost in gambling.

In his autobiography, Daly mentioned that he had serious issues with gambling addiction, which took away most of his earnings. He claimed to have lost over $55 million in gambling, adding that he had lost over $90 million but won back nearly $35 million.

Throughout his career, Daly has been associated with several brands. He is currently partnered with the clothing brand Loudmouth. In 2014, he secured a deal with Rock Bottom Golf, a discount golf store.

Daly once owned a wine label called John Daly Wines, which eventually closed. Besides, he has ventured into golf course design under the name JD Designs, with several courses in California, Ireland, Canada, Missouri, and Arkansas on his resume.
