Basketball players and their love for
golf are well known. Over the years, players like Michael Jordan , Stephen Curry , and Charles Barkley have shown serious interest in it. While someone like Steph is a good player on the greens, Barkley is just hilariously bad . However, he has been learning the ropes and is slowly getting better. Recently, Sir Charles called out some of the golfers, alluding that their short height allows them to be good players. Barkley has come a long way from trembling, while taking a swing, to being more confident in showcasing his skills. He recorded a segment for ‘ Golf Digest’ with coach Stan Utley and took some shots at players like Rory McIlroy and Rickie Fowler. He said, His interactions with McIlroy are dubbed as cinema. When they meet, it’s all about laughter, families, future projects, and some banter. Charles Barkley has a deep-rooted passion for golf As bad as Chuck was at one point in golf, it’s difficult to stick to a sport without passion. Barkley really enjoys his time on the greens and has been like that since he was an active
NBA player. During the four months of the offseason, he needed something that allowed him to enjoy his time while catering to his competitive side. He said, “I’m probably playing better now than I’ve ever played in my life.” Barkley credited Utley for his guidance and coaching that helped him improve his game.
