John Daly lost his Florida home to Hurricane Helene last week.<\/p>\n

“You live in Florida, you have to understand that\u2019s going to happ<\/a>en, but not like this. I didn\u2019t think it would be this bad,” the pro golfer said of the Category 4 storm that left at least 162 dead<\/a> and hundreds missing across the Southeast United States.<\/p>\n

Daly, 58, described the storm as “devastating” and “the worst I\u2019ve ever seen.”<\/p>\n

\u201cI hope everyone gets safe and gets their homes back,\u201d he told PGATour.com<\/a> while attending a PGA Tour Champions event in Timiquana Country Club in Jacksonville, Fla., on Wednesday, Oct. 2. \u201cMy heart just goes out to everybody.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to PGATour.com, Daly visited the Clearwater, Fla., home that was destroyed sparingly, spending most of his time in Dardanelle, Ark.<\/p>\n

“I just haven’t even gone back into mine,” said of the Florida property. “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.”<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Sept. 26, Daly posted screenshots of Helene as the storm made landfall. In the post, he had an arrow pointing towards the Florida home, per Sports Illustrated<\/em><\/a>. On Friday, Sept. 27, he posted that his family was safe, but “all our homes are not as water is pouring out of every crevice.”<\/p>\n

The following night on Saturday, Sept. 28, Daly was photographed in a private box<\/a> watching the Alabama vs. Georgia game<\/a> alongside former president Donald Trump at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa, Ala.<\/p>\n

Daly shared that his longtime fianc\u00e9e Anna Cladakis and other loved ones were also impacted by Helene’s devastation.<\/p>\n
“We’re going to have to redo about three, three-and-a-half homes. Almost four,” Daly told PGATour.com. “Anna’s mom lost her house. Matty’s burned down yesterday morning and Chrissy had to get a boat to get to hers so they’re all pretty much gone.”<\/p>\n
