Gareth Bale lands first job after former Tottenham star's retirement from football

Gareth Bale has secured a role in the world of golf following his retirement from football. He's set to serve as an ambassador for Steph Curry's 'Underrated Golf' for their inaugural European Tour.

Bale, 34, hung up his football boots after captaining Wales at the 2022 World Cup and following a career boasting five-time Champions League wins. The former Tottenham star stirred up debates when he celebrated Wales's qualification for the 2020 European Championship with a flag reading «Wales. Golf. Madrid. In that order».

Having created controversy within his final years at Real Madrid with his penchant for golf, Bale has played up to it since. Even before he retired, he was serving as a global ambassador for The RandA and is now stepping into another golf-related role.

Not long after being present courtside at a Golden State Warriors game in Los Angeles and accepting a signed jersey from NBA superstar Curry, Bale confirmed his participation in Curry's golf venture. He also hinted this move at the time, reports the Mirror.

He shared an Instagram photo with Curry, swapping jerseys and teased about something exciting coming up by captioning the picture: «What a night watching these guys play up close. Great to see you [Stephen Curry] Excited for what's to come!»

He rounded off the caption with a golf swing and basketball emoji, adding the hashtag: «Underrated». In another snap, Curry sports a black cap emblazoned with the Underrated logo while posing next to Bale.
