Shaquille O’Neal – 7’1”
What more can be said about this basketball icon? He was blessed genetically and his height made him one of the most successful players of all time. If Shaquille was on the court, the other team had no chance against him because of how far he could jump and reach. O’Neal is one of the most celebrated and wealthiest athletes in the world, with an incredible amount of media and branding investments to boot.
John Daly – 216 lb
Not all golfers are svelte and at their peak physically but as a sport, golf does not require you to be in peak physical condition, so you would expect there to be more golfers carrying some extra weight. John weighs one of the most at 216 lb. As a golfer, he is very, very good despite his girth. His nickname on the course is “Long John” because of his ability to hit hard, long drives.
