Welsh former football player, Gareth Bale has announced he will play in a PGA Tour.
This comes just weeks after the 33-year-old retired from professional football.
The former Tottenham Hotspur star said who retired earlier this month as Wales’ most-capped male player and record men’s goalscorer said he will compete in February’s AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in California.
He posted on social media on Monday. “Delighted to announce I will be playing in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am at the start of next month! Let’s go”.
Bale, regarded as one of the greatest players of his generation and one of the greatest Welsh players of all time is a five-time Champions League winner with Spanish giants, Real Madrid.
So far, 156 amateurs will be participating at Pebble Beach and the same number of professionals, including US Open champion Matt Fitzpatrick, world number five Patrick Cantlay and three-time major winner Jordan Spieth.
