Roger Clemens has been linked to golfer John Daly's ex-wife, Paulette Dean Daly.
For Roger Clemens, the hits just keep on coming.
Several sources told the Daily News Wednesday that Clemens had a relationship with Paulette Dean Daly, a former wife of champion golfer John Daly.
The sources said Clemens, a married father of four, arranged trips to Anaheim Stadium for Daly - the latest woman to emerge as an alleged Rocket flame - to watch him pitch forthe Yankees against the Angels. Sources also said he spent time with her in Palm Springs, Calif.
The pair met at the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic, a Palm Springs golf tournament that Paulette Dean Daly has been involved with for many years - including stints as a "Classic Girl," one of the beautiful women who help in ceremonial duties at the event, sources said.
"Yeah, I've known Roger quite a while and we are friends," Daly said yesterday.
She declined to elaborate on the nature of her relationship with the pitcher, but did not deny allegations from several sources that it was romantic and included financial support.
Asked if she had been romantically involved with Clemens, Daly replied: "You know what, I'm really uncomfortable talking about this. I'm just going to have to say, 'No comment.'
"I know Roger. I consider him a good friend. That's all I'm comfortable saying."
Clemens' relationship with Daly is said to have come after the end of her marriage to the hard-driving golfer. That was on the heels of a grim incident at the 1997 Players Championship, where the golfer was taken to a hospital with alcohol poisoning.
The beauty married the golfer in Las Vegas in January 1995 at the Little Church of the West. He wore blue jeans, cowboy boots, a dark jacket and no tie. She wore white.
Daly is still involved with the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic as an organizer of famously lavish parties there.
News reports have described Clemens as being in attendance as recently as two years ago, dancing around the party with an 8-foot-long boa constrictor around his neck.
