PGA Tour icon John Daly’s Florida home is completely destroyed in ‘devastating’ Hurricane Helene full details below
Across the southeastern states of the US, over 130 people were killed and millions left without power, as emergency crews continue to save lives, and the full extent of the damage is not yet known.
The professional golfer revealed his home in the Sunshine State, along with the properties of other family members, was completely wiped out by the historic hurricane.
‘It’s devastating,’ Daly told PGATour.com while attending a PGA Tour Champions event in Timiquana Country Club in Jacksonville on Wednesday
‘It’s the worst I’ve ever seen. I hope everyone gets safe and gets their homes back. My heart just goes out to everybody.’
‘We’re going to have lost three, maybe four,’ he said of his and his family’s homes.
‘I just haven’t even gone back into mine,’ he added. ‘I restructured it, fixed it up. Hadn’t been in it for two years; got all the stuff in there and then its all gone.’
In an Instagram post Thursday, Daly posted a radar screenshot of the storm while pointing out his house near Tampa with an arrow. ‘Please be safe during Hurricane Helene,’ he wrote alongside the image.
On Friday, he provided an update on his family, writing on Facebook: ‘For everyone that has reached out, my family are all safe, but all our homes are not as water is pouring out of every crevice.
‘Total loss and devastation after living here all my life! I still cannot imagine ALL we have lost, but we are SAFE and all can be replaced! Praise God!’
