Graham DeLaet Has Golf's Best Beard
Graham DeLaet is a 34-year old professional golfer. He’s been around for awhile, but having made the cut just 3 times in 7 Major appearances, he’s far from a household name. Until now, DeLaet’s best claim to fame was his clubs showing up to the Open Championship days after he did, covered in powder. Not anymore. Now Graham DeLaet has an epic beard. A baseball closer playoff-quality beard. Graham DeLaet is breaking golf’s facial hairier.
DeLaet has sported a beard before, but just last summer, he was playing tournaments within weeks – sometimes even days! – of shaving.
However, 2016 has seen an epic showing from DeLaet. Whether he inspired Boo Weekly or it was the other way around is up for debate.

Over the weekend, his game started to catch up. Over the weekend DeLaet finished tied for 5th place at the Valspar Championship, winning $268,400. The real winner? Epic facial hair.
