I could not concentrate on golf with Jessica Alba anywhere nearby.

John Daly plays golf with Jessica Alba, proves to everyone that chicks still dig the long ball

By Luke Kerr-Dineen

As part of the Mission Hills World Celebrity Pro-Am in China last week, Jessica Alba played golf with John Daly. Alba told Golf Digest back in 2007 that she's a 22 handicap, and that she can drive the ball 200 yards.

Pretty impressive, but still not quite as good as John Daly's distance off the tee, which Alba seemed equally taken by. Here's what she posted on Instagram six hours ago:

A few more pictures of Alba at the event:

I can't say I blame her, I'm always impressed (and a bit jealous) when I see a guy that can drive the ball over 300 yards.

I guess Jessica Alba is one of the few who doesn't get an automatic +2 on the 1-10 scale for wearing golf clothes/playing golf. Interesting. :)

When your already a 15 on a 1-10 scale it doesn't matter. She doesn't need a +2 but it does make me like her even more knowing she plays. It doesn't make her hotter cause she's already maxed out ;).

She's an 11.  That's one more. :-D

I like that outfit. Leaves room for the imagination. :-)

That's ridiculous, Daly looks like an Oompa Loompa (in more ways than one) and he's almost 6' tall.

Jessica Alba smokes. That makes her a dilemma for me. Do her from behind to avoid the cigarette breath? Or tough it out so I could see her face?

Two possible reasons:

  1. She's already nearly off the top of the scale so there is no room for the extra points, or,
  2. She's wearing a dude's shirt.  It doesn't fit terribly good (which is basically to say it's not tight enough) and it looks like all of my shirts.

P.S.  That picture of Yao and Daly is staggering.  When you see him amongst other NBA players you don't get a good enough feel for just how enormous the guy is.  Good lord.

Didn't know that.

That's a Plus 11 to a 1 in record time.

Yao Ming and Daly

Maximum club length by rule is 48".  Might as set up every one of his clubs from wedge to driver with a 48" club length.

Yeah I know, a real shame.

She smokes?

In that case, the +2 gets her to a 4, or a 5 at most.

Definitely distracting. Love her expression on the drive. I would say she dressed like that because she is trying to be serious about her game.

Yao Ming and Daly

Holy pituitary Batman. That is striking. Looks almost 1/3 taller than Daly. If he doesn't go to 48" on every club (using .25" or .125" length gaps), he should go near tabletop for his full swings (or at least the wedges) for better contact. Imagine the height of his 48" lob wedge.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?      
    • Day 281 6-10 Full swing, fast, getting low point ahead of "towel".  Working on flow during this seems to help.
