The Game Developing Company Spearhead Studios has inked a multi-game agreement to produce Golf-themed casino games with Golf Bad boy John Daly. The first title starring the iconic golfer is set to be released later this year.
Daly’s exceptional golf skills along with his sparkling personality will inspire innovative game content aimed at entertaining sports fans. As one of the strongest characters in the world of Golf, John Daly has amassed a huge following thanks to his persona rather than results on the courses over the past few years. Not seldom seen with a cigarette in his mouth, sporting colourful pants and with a blonde mullet, Daly has become somewhat of a iconic player in Golf. Not seen as one of golf’s biggest stars such as Tiger Woods, John Rahm and Phil Mickelson, however – his support from the sidelines are nothing less than the rest.
John Daly, two-time golf major champion, says: “Sports and iGaming share a passion for creative entertainment which I deeply appreciate, so this is a great opportunity for me to endorse both. I’m excited to see how Spearhead Studios turns this game series into reality, and, as a passionate slot player, I can’t wait to take it for a spin.”
Mathias Larsson, Managing Director at Spearhead Studios, comments: “I am a passionate golfer myself and have followed John Daly since his PGA Championship win in 1991. He is an incredible golf player and a major character on the PGA Tour.
“This will be one of the first branded online casino games with a sports star and the first game with a golf player. It will be a very exciting journey and I’m confident the end result will be amazing.”
