LeBron James is not just a basketball legend; he’s also taking his golf game seriously. Recently, he was spotted playing golf and even shared a video of himself fist-pumping after a successful putt.
On December 16, LeBron James posted a video of himself playing golf alone on the range. He proudly declared that he had scored a par with a two-putt. However, some fans online were skeptical of James’ claim, with many feeling that it was not a par. Some eagle-eyed fans even noticed his use of the claw grip and questioned his technique.
Here are some reactions from fans:
One fan commented, “Claw grip already? Buddy is battling putting demons early.”
Another fan wrote, “We all know that was a Bogey! Not fooling anybody.”
A user warned, “He better not complain or cry on the golf course…you got away with that in the NBA, but the golfing gods will not have any of it.”
Yet another fan remarked, “What coach told him to use a claw grip! It’s only meant for players with brick hands and no touch.”
One user opined, “I don’t believe anything he says. That was a triple bogey at least. Probably just filmed that for the internet.”
And finally, a fan humorously added, “LeBron is the guy that has 20 bad shots and only counts his good ones.”
While LeBron James may be new to the world of golf, he is not the only NBA star to take up the sport. Players like Stephen Curry, Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley, and Klay Thompson are also avid golfers. Curry, in particular, is known for his skills on the course and often participates in Pro-Ams and celebrity tournaments.
Michael Jordan, on the other hand, has a strong passion for golf and even hosts an annual celebrity tournament for charity. Charles Barkley and Klay Thompson are also active participants in Pro-Ams and celebrity events.
In the women’s basketball world, WNBA star Caitlin Clark recently made her second appearance at the Annika tournament, while Sophie Cunningham accidentally hit a ball into the spectators’ box.
Overall, LeBron James may be new to golf, but he is quickly immersing himself in the sport. It will be interesting to see how his game progresses in the future.
