John Daly Marriage

John Daly Marriage

Yesterday we talk about John Daly’s golf style? today let’s attention his marriage.

In the summer of 1987, he married Dale Crafton. They divorced in Feb. 1990. In the summer of 1992, he married Bettye Fulford. They had a daughter Shynah Hale. In December 1992, Daly was charged with third-degree assault for throwing his second wife Bettye into a wall; although the actual circumstances of the incident, by all current accounts, indicate the charges were overstated and Bettye did not wish to pursue the matter. Daly has said in his autobiography that he did not, nor has he ever, hit or hurt a woman. He apologized for the incident, which has now been characterized more as “shoving” than “throwing”, and entered an alcohol rehabilitation center and took time off from golf tournaments in early 1993.

He divorced Bettye at least in part because she turned out to be ten years older than she originally told him she was. In July 1995 he married Paulette Dean. They had a daughter, Sierra Lynn. They divorced in 1999. On July 29, 2001, he married Sherrie Miller. Their son John Patrick Daly II was born July 23, 2003.

On June 8, 2007, Daly and his fourth wife Sherrie got into a fight at a restaurant in Memphis, Tennessee, site of that week’s tour stop, the Stanford St. Jude Championship. Daly claims that later that night his wife attacked him with a steak knife. He showed up for his 2nd round on Friday afternoon with cuts and scrapes across his face. Authorities were contacted by him and came to his house, but his wife had already fled the scene and taken their children with her.

Sherrie (at some point) pleaded guilty to federal drug charges and was sentenced to a five month prison term.

Daly’s third ex-wife, Paulette Dean Daly, has now been linked to Baseball star Roger Clemens in an alleged affair during Clemens’ marriage.

He changed his wife as he changed his golf brands Taylormade, callaway and so on.
