Andrew Johnston details the wild first night he hung out with John Daly in Turkey

Ross KinnairdThe friendship of Andrew “Beef” Johnston and John Daly has been well-documented, including the time the popular pair filmed themselves hanging out and we learned JD mixes his Crown Royal with chocolate milk. Kids, don't try that at home. No, really, kids, don't. But Beef recently revealed more about the wild first night they partied together in Turkey.

Not that we needed to add the “in Turkey” part because it's a story that involves hanging out with John Daly. You could hang out with John Daly in AnyTown, USA, and things would get wild. But Beef happened to hang out with him first while the two were playing at the 2015 Turkish Airlines Open.

Jordan Spieth’s brutal break, Brooks Koepka’s milestone birthday, and the greatest courtroom sketch ever

Welcome to another edition of The Grind, where we wish cutting our hair was as easy as cutting our lawn. Not that the latter is a snap of the fingers for a bumbling homeowner like myself, but I finally took care of that for the first time this year. You know, before the neighbors started shooting me nasty glances. Well, nastier glances than normal. Let’s just say the USGA will have a difficult time getting nearby Winged Foot’s rough to be that juicy for a September U.S. Open. And let's just hope I'm able to get an actual haircut by then. In any event, here's what else is (still) happening in the world of golf.

TaylorMade Driving Relief: See what they did with the name there? That play on words? Clever. All kidding aside, we’re pumped for the charity event involving Rory McIlroy and Dustin Johnson vs. Rickie Fowler and Matthew Wolff.
