Do not let appearances fool you. Yea, John Daly is an athlete. He probably does not use good judgment in his personal habits, but by many standards he can still get it done. He does not have to run the course, if he did the he would either be smaller or not play. If you use the appearance criteria then why do big fat linemen get a free pass? Fitness is relative to your sport and position. In fact I recall my early days with the White Sox when we got a pitcher to lose twenty pounds in the off season. The result was he really looked good in a uniform, but he lost velocity and could not get anyone out.
