Professional golfers are just like us. They put their pants on one leg at a time, and they are rabid sports fans.
With many professional golfers coming from across the pond, naturally a Premier League and pro golf Venn diagram has been born. And with the 150th Open Championship being held this weekend in the UK, we decided to take a look at that Venn diagram with the help of our new friends from Pro Soccer Wire.
Whether your favorite football club is atop the tables every year or they’re fighting off relegation, Pro Soccer Wire will have you covered on all of the breaking news, stories, and other content your soccer-loving heart could desire.
They put together this list of players who love the Premier League and for an extended list of golf stars and their favorite clubs click here.
Without further ado, here’s the list:
