There are quite a few golfing footballers. Harry Kane, Thomas Müller and Gareth Bale have already proven their skills many times over. While Harry Kane is considered the best golfer in the Bundesliga, Gareth Bale has already taken part in international tournaments such as the Pebble Beach Pro-Am and even Rory McIlroy was impressed by the Welshman’s skills. However, a footballer who has also recently picked up a golf club still needs some practice. A video shows the superstar Neymar Jr, who now plays for the Saudi Arabian club Al-Hilal, playing golf in Abu Dhabi. It quickly becomes clear that the Brazilian has not been on a golf course very often.

Neymar damages golf course

A short video showing Neymar attempting to swing a golf club spread like wildfire on social media, causing laughter and head-shaking around the world. In the clip, which was recorded during his stay in the United Arab Emirates, Neymar can be seen missing the ball with a huge swing and instead devastating the grass of the golf course. His failed attempt to master a sport outside his usual area of expertise quickly became the talk of the golfing world.

Fans and spectators couldn’t help but draw a parallel with another famous sportsman: Gareth Bale. The Welsh soccer star, known for his love of golf, was humorously suggested by some as a potential mentor for Neymar. While Bale regularly shows off his skills on the golf course, Neymar still seems to have a long way to go to achieve the same. Perhaps it’s time for Neymar to not only improve his golf swings, but also ask for help from experts. Gareth Bale or professional golf coaches could help him hone his skills on the course and possibly discover a new passion. After all, as in soccer, practice is the key to success in golf.
