John Daly shreds with Kenny G, plays golf with Jessica Alba

John Daly has made the full transformation into international rockstar. He has a hit song on the radio, he shreds with Kenny G — what more proof do we need?

Daly and Kenny G performed a rendition of Bob Dylan’s “Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door” at an after-party event following the Mission Hills World Celebrity Pro-Am at China’s Hainan Mission Hills over the weekend.

The event was loaded with a star-studded cast of characters including Morgan Freeman, Nicole Kidman, Jessica Alba, Greg Norman and Yao Ming.

I thought there was some rule about wearing white after labor day, Ms. Kidman? Maybe it’s just a conscious decision to publicly separate herself from her role in Batman Forever.

So rad! #johndaly #golflife

Flexibility and extension on the backswing doesn’t seem to be an issue in Alba’s golf game.

Why does Red’s left hand look like Chubbs’ right hand here? Freeman teamed up with ex-NBA basketball player Yao Ming during the World Celebrity Pro-Am.

Yao Ming is tall. At 7 foot 6 inches, it looks like his “standard” driver shaft length is equivalent of a ReMax World Long Drive shaft. In case you need a good laugh, here’s Yao trying to play golf in 2012.

Partying, music and golf on what looks to be an awesome golf course. I guess a little rain didn’t seem to spoil their good time.

Sad that more celebrities would rather go play in China than play in the Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Maybe due to lack of TV coverage? Gives it a more intimate affair?

Heard about Greg Normans accident but first look at the picture of him I thought he had chopped his arms off.

that is an extreme backswing by Jessica Alba, some serious stretching. Haven’t seen the right elbow in that position yet. Is she trying to outdrive Daly?

“Knocking on Heaven’s Door” must be John’s go-to song. The one he feels he sounds the best singing. Because it seems like every video you see of him singing is of this song.

GolfWRX is on site for the second major of 2026: The PGA Championship from Aronimink in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania.

The tournament’s location, just outside Philadelphia, and its status as a major championship mean GolfWRXers are in for a treat: WITBs from a strong field, custom gear celebrating the PGA Championship, and the rich culture of the City of Brotherly Love — we have noted a relative absence of cheesesteak-themed items thus far this week, but most of the rest of the usual suspects are well represented.
