The YouTube sensation posted a teaser of the video to his X (formerly known as Twitter) account featuring Mickelson and his two guests. Horvat began by asking Mickelson how to get into the $2 million worth (as per Celebrity Net Worth) golfer's head.

Mickelson, who was also stunned by the question, asked John Daly II the same thing, to which he replied (via X @NUCLRGolf):

"You know, I've been trying to figure that out for a really long time."

The video then cut to a clip of PGA Tour sensation John Daly lighting a cigarette. He then began singing an impromptu song that he made up on the spot while smashing a drive off the tee. Here's a look at the golfing veteran's lyrics (via X @NUCLRGolf):

"It's a beautiful day, to play golf my way. Ain't nobody getting in my head today. I got better things and I'll be on my way."
