THE BIGGER PICTURE: Bale is a known golf lover and his devotion to the sport attracted some criticism during his time at Madrid, as it was claimed he prioritised it over playing football. Bale even partnered professional golfer Joseph Bramlett AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am in California in February this year.
WHAT NEXT FOR BALE? Now that his football days are behind him, the former LAFC star will likely continue to dabble in golf after being added to the video game's roster.
