Andy Murray in very exciting link-up with sporting icons as retirement plans take shape
Former tennis star Andy Murray is continuing to make the most of his retirement by forming a cross-sport superstar lineup on the golf course. Murray is enjoying taking up the new challenge of learning a different type of swing after hanging up his racket in August.
The Scot recently made his debut in the BMW PGA ChampionshipPro-Am after being paired with Scottish golfer Bob MacIntyre earlier this year.The 37-year-old has been regularly taking to the course, not only with McIntyre but also his celebrity friends. And he has now joined former Tottenham footballer Gareth Bale and ex-England cricketer Kevin Pietersen at Wentworth to improve his skills after reaching a handicap of seven.Pietersen uploaded an image of the three men together with the caption: “Football, cricket, tennis, playing golf together! Great days! The best days! Pretty cool how golf gives the opportunity to do this!”Murray responded by using the image on his Instagram Story, adding a single heart emoji for his two million followers to peruse.It’s not the first time that the sports icons – joined by businessman Warren Kwei – have met up for a day out on the runway. Back in September, Pietersen uploaded an image of the same quartet playing at the ultra-exclusive Queenwood Golf Club on the outskirts of London.
