Professional golfer John Daly threw his club into a lake because sports are hard
Never mind that John Daly is a grown 49-year-old father of three, the "zero to hero" winner of the 1991 PGA Championship and the 1995 Open Championship — no, never mind all that, losing sucks and he's going to throw his club into this lake whether you like it or not.
Admittedly, Daly was truly doing not so great, hitting a couple balls into the water and posting a 10 on a par-3 at Whistling Straits. But chucking his club into Lake Michigan was probably overkill.
Anyway, you know what they say about one man's trash.
