Looks like the art critic Robert Hughes.

Probably the most physically talented golfer after Tiger Woods, but there the resemblance ends. For every ounce of talent, John Daly packs a pound of character flaws which somehow do not bespeak of a smallness of character but rather of a spirit too large even for his massive body. He can do the most childish and outlandish things and yet we do not see him as a hateful man but as an overactive pre-teen whose hormones cause him to squander talents which could only have come from God.

Maybe that is why we are so ready to forgive him his peccadilloes. We are rooting for him in an elemental struggle played out over 18 holes which is really biblical and transcendental.
