Gareth Bale’s golf venture hits new high as fans say Real Madrid legend has ‘finally achieved his dream’

GARETH BALE’S love affair with golf has taken a fresh twist after he became a playable pro in a video game.

The Real Madrid and Wales legend has a well-known love of golf, having been seen frequently playing it during the latter stages of his time in Madrid.

Following the World Cup Bale announced his retirement from football, giving him even more time to get himself onto the golf course.

But now Bale could be on the golf course anytime someone loads up the PGA Tour 2K23 video game.

It comes after the 34-year-old was scanned into the game to become a playable pro.

The reveal video from the game’s social media pages features a voiceover from Bale as footage plays in the background of his face being scanned.

Many sports video games including FIFA, now EA Sports FC, and Basketball‘s NBA 2K23 use state-of-the-art game engines to help make their games look as realistic as possible.

The PGA Tour game is no different.

However, Bale himself is not the only introduction to the game.

The game developers have even implemented Bale’s very own custom-designed dream golf course.

Players can also test their skills in the suitably named “Eleven’s Club” to earn in-game rewards.

Reacting to the reveal, one fan said: “This is so cool .”

A second replied: “Not the crossover I expected but will definitely be playing.”

“Bro finally got his dream,” remarked a third.

A fourth wrote: “Looks like i have to get into golf .”

Another declared: “This man is a legend.”

While a sixth typed: “He has followed his passion.”

Bale has also been in action on a real-life golf course recently too.

The former Spurs star paired up with Rory McIlroy for the BMW PGA Championship Celebrity Pro-Am event in Wentworth, Surrey.

Bale was handed a 0.5 handicap for the event.

He is also set to appear alongside tennis ace Novak Djokovic in the Ryder Cup celebrity All-Star match later this month.
