John “Happy Gilmore” Daly decided that a fan had their camera to close to his face at the Australian Open…so he smashed the camera into a tree.

Daly was clearly frustrated at his lack of success in three tournaments in Australia this season.
After snatching the camera he stalked up to the nearest tree and hurled it with all his force into the trunk, saying “you want it back, I’ll buy you a new one”.

As Daly completed the hole Clegg, a 15-handicapper at Sydney club Ashlar, was left to pick up the pieces – literally.

Clegg, who had taken a leave day especially to see Daly play, said it was a disappointing way to finish the day.

“It hasn’t ended well,” he said.

Asked if he would be seeking compensation, Clegg said: “I don’t think I’ll be chasing him for the money. He’s a big bloke.”

Clegg said he had come out specifically to watch Daly because it might be the last chance he has.
“It was very unexpected.”

Apparently the guy wasn’t supposed to have a camera at the event anyway, so Daly won’t face any repercussions for his actions.

Yep, just another day in the life of John Daly – the coolest guy in the universe.
