What is Gareth Bale's golf handicap? | The Sun

THE Ryder Cup is set to return this week which means the All-Star Match is back – and former footballer Gareth Bale will be taking part.

The ex-Tottenham and Real Madrid star had a glittering career winning 22 trophies including a whopping five Champions Leagues.

Bale announced his retirement from football on January 9 2023, but he left nobody in any doubt how he would fill his spare time.

During his time at Real Madrid, the Welshman earned the nickname 'The Golfer'and was even mocked by his own supporters for his golf obsession.

The 34-year-old made his PGA Tour debut at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in February 2023, just one month after retiring from football.

Bale has been named in Team Monty for the Ryder Cup All-Star match along with captain Colin Montgomerie, Garret Hilbert, Leonardo Fioravanti, Novak Djokovic and Kipp Popert.

Bale has a three-hole golf course at his home in Wales which was built in 2018.

The par three holes are modelled on a selection from three high profile venues.
