Soccer star makes hole-in-one on PAR 4 ahead of Premier League season
Antonee Robinson's Premier League season starts in three weeks. Unfortunately for Antonee Robinson the golfer, he looks like he's just rounding into midseason form.
The Fulham FC defender and U.S. Men's National Team member made his first-ever hole-in-one on Wednesday. But it gets even better, because it came on a par 4.
That's right, Robinson's maiden ace also doubled as his first albatross. The soccer star, sorry, FOOTBALLER knocked one in with his driver on the 325-yard 12th hole (Dude's got some pop!) at Burhill Golf Club's Old Course. And he was flanked by a few Fulham teammates as well to make the incredibly rare feat even more special.
"Hole in 1 and Albatross ticked off in 1 Drive! Didn’t believe it at first and still don’t," Robinson wrote on Twitter. He added, "Up the golf."
Congrats, Antonee. And if the upcoming fourth season of "Ted Lasso," needs any plot ideas, an AFC Richmond team golf excursion could be fun.
