Generally, the PGA tries not to televise any players smoking. This is likely due to the fact that the PGA does have younger fans , and televising something like smoking may not have the best impact on them. Probably one of the most well known cigarette smokers in the professional golf world is John Daly. Since he started playing in , Daly would smoke regularly during tours and rounds of golf. He has claimed, in an interview with Graham Bensinger , that he began smoking in college to lose weight so that he could play on the golf team.
Another player who is known to smoke on the course is Tim Herron. This photo clearly shows his master-class skill, being able to put while holding a smoke at the same time. Marcel Siem seems to be the youngest player on this list who smokes cigarettes while playing golf.
According to sources, Marcel Siem is more likely to smoke days prior to tournaments rather than smoking the day of the tournament. He started pointing to names and then gave up.

Angel Miguel Jimenez The cheeky Spaniard seems permanently attached to a cuban and would sooner trade in a club before playing without a cigar on hand.
As part of the good life he leads, Quigley can often be found around the craps tables and roulette wheels of a casino convenient to a golf tournament site. He bets the number 35 at roulette. It can be amazing how many times it comes in for him. Jim Thorpe struck gold when he joined the Senior Tour in His regular tour career, which showed a lot of promise in the early s, was undermined by a series of injuries that sidelined him during his late 40s.
Nowadays, Thorpe enjoys smoking cigars just about everywhere, from the casino to the practice tee. But before joining the Senior Tour, he was a cigarette smoker for 20 years. He was playing in a Senior event his first year on the tour when he had to withdraw because of illness.
Along with him on that trip was his friend and agent, Mike Lewis. Thorpe lit up a cigarette in the car as they were leaving the club and Lewis reached over and threw his cigarette and the rest of the pack out the window. That was the end of Thorpe's cigarette smoking days.
About a month later he was playing golf back home in Orlando, Florida, when he got the urge, big time, for a cigarette. An acquaintance gave him a cigar and he has smoked them ever since.
But I like them on the golf course. They're something to relax with between shots. If you think that Walt Morgan would have any trouble competing on the Senior Tour, consider that he has two tours of duty in Vietnam on his service record.
He is a soft-spoken man with a kind heart and a steely resolve, and like his idol Charlie Sifford, he plays golf with a cigar in his mouth. Morgan started playing golf when the Army stationed him in Hawaii. He was 29 when he first swung a club and is completely self-taught. He was a good player in the Army and a good boxer, as well but couldn't quite make it on the PGA Tour when he left the service in So he took a club job in Texas and joined the Senior Tour when he turned 50 in He credits Sifford with helping him become a successful player, but takes all the credit for himself when it comes to smoking cigars.
I don't know how I would play if I didn't have one because I haven't tried it, really. You get to playing a certain way, it's tough to change. Tom Wargo is 60 now and can look back over a long life that didn't begin with a silver spoon or a golf club in his hand. Wargo never even played golf until he was 25, which makes it all the more remarkable that he won the PGA Seniors' Championship.
Before he decided to pursue a golf career, Wargo was a bartender, an autoworker and an ironworker. Only 75 emoji are allowed. Display as a link instead. Clear editor.
