Gareth Bale on Football and Golf: “The German Fans Are Amazing”

With a handicap of 2, Gareth Bale is not only a successful athlete on the football pitch, but also impresses with strong golfing performances at various ProAm tournaments. This was also the case at the 35th edition of the BMW International Open. He already made his PGA Tour debut last year and teed it up at the Pebble Beach ProAm, shortly after he came to Germany to the Munich Eichenried Golf Club. Now he can already look back on his second ProAm at this tournament and, in his press conference after his round in the group with Danny Willett and long driver Martin Borgmeier, was delighted with the course conditions and the German fans. In addition to golf, the current number one football topic was of course also on the agenda. The European Championship in Germany is inspiring the Welsh international, but he did not get carried away with a tip for the outcome of the match between Germany and Spain and chose a diplomatic answer.

Gareth Bale: “The german fans are amazing”

This is Gareth Bale’s second visit to the BMW International Open and the Welshman is delighted with Golfclub München Eichenried and his round: “The golf course is in great condition again. It was great fun and I definitely played better than last year”. There is great anticipation for an exciting 35th edition of the tournament and a look at the strong field of participants also promises high tension. “It is obviously a lot of great players playing. From being here last year, the fans are amazing and very supportive. I am sure it will be another great week”. However, the footballer does not want to commit himself to a possible winner: “There will be a worthy champion at the end”. However, one stands out for Bale too. Bernhard Langer is celebrating his farewell from the DP World Tour and European professional sport this week, which of course also leaves its mark on golf fan Bale: The longevity, the amount of golf he has played and the career he has had is incredible”.

Euro 2024 in Germany: A highlight, also for Gareth Bale

Gareth Bale can look back on a successful football career in which he made a name for himself in various teams with very good performances. He also played for many years in the Welsh national team, where he became the record player with 111 appearances and 41 goals. So the question on the European Football Championship in Germany is an obvious one: “I haven’t been to any games but I’m going to the finals in Berlin. It’s nice to have the tournament back in one country”. However, the football star refrains from making any predictions about the outcome of the match between Germany and Spain this Friday (July 5): “It’s one of those games, whoever turns up on the day. They both have fantastic teams. Germany obviously has the home advantage. Who plays better on that day will win the game”.

DP World Tour: Scandinavian Mixed – How Does it Work?

The Scandinavian Mixed is now an established fixture on the DP World Tour calendar. Men and women play a tournament together at Vasatorps Golfklubb in Helsingborg, Sweden. But how does the format work?

How the Scandinavian Mixed 2024 works:

DP World Tour: Men and women compete for one trophy

For many, the term mixed event probably immediately conjures up the idea of some kind of team event, where a male and female player form teams of two and compete against each other in the familiar formats. But don’t worry, you don’t have to get out the rule book and look up the exact difference between foursomes and fourballs.

The mixed event in Sweden is characterised by the simplicity of the format, a classic golf tournament.

156 participants, 78 women, 78 men and after four rounds there is one winner. There will be mixed flights on the first two days, with the ladies playing from the ladies’ tee and the men from the men’s tee. As usual, a cut will be made after two rounds and only the best 65 (and shared) players will progress to the final round. There, the groups will be shuffled again and over the weekend, the participants will compete for a total prize money of 2 million dollars as well as points for the respective world ranking, the Ryder Cup and the Solheim Cup.

Scandinavian Mixed 2024: The field

Swedish golf fans can expect a great number of scandinavian golfers to participate in the event. Many eyes will follow the flight made up completely of swedish golfers, with former tournament winner Linn Grant, Solheim Cup player Madelene Sagstrom and Jesper Svensson, who recently won the Porsche Singapore Classic.

What's in the Bag

WITB: Nacho Elvira wins the Soudal Open 2024 with Callaway

Nacho Elvira wins on the DP World Tour for the second time in his career. After his victory at the Cazoo Open in 2021, the Spaniard secured victory at the Soudal Open 2024 in Belgium on a thrilling final day. After three dominant days, Nacho Elvira had his problems, especially after a rain interruption on the final day, allowing his two pursuers Niklas Norgaard Moller and Romain Langasque to close the gap. In the end, however, a round of 71 was enough for the triumph in Antwerp. For his victory, Elvira opted for a bag similar to the one Xander Schauffele used at the PGA Championship the previous week and therefore put his trust in the equipment supplier Callaway.

WITB Nacho Elvira 2024 – With Callaway to victory

Nacho Elvira has the latest Paradym AI Smoke Driver in the Triple Diamond Max edition in his bag. This has a neutral to fade-oriented clubface, which is particularly aimed at low handicappers and tour pros. The club offers good handling from the tee, which should ensure a high ball launch and low spin. Among the fairway woods, Elvira also uses the same Triple Diamond model for golfers with a higher swing speed who are looking for precise ball control and a penetrating, low-spin ball flight. A Callaway X Forged Utility Wood bridges the gap to the Callaway Apex TCB irons. The Spaniard relies on the latest model from this year. When it comes to wedges, the newly crowned Tour winner puts the Callaway JAWS MD5 (50° and 54°) and the Callaway JAWS Raw (58°) in his bag. For the putter, Elvira opts for the White Hot OG Rossie from Callaway’s Odyssey brand, which specializes in the manufacture of putters. The Callaway Chrome Tour golf ball completes the Spaniard’s bag.

Nacho Elvira’s Bag

Driver: Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Triple Diamond Max (8.5°)

Fairway: Callaway Paradym Ai Smoke Max (15°)

Utility: Callaway X Forged UT (18°)

Irons: Callaway Apex TCB ’24 (4-5) and Apex MB ’24 (6-10)

Wedges: Callaway JAWS MD5 (50°,54°; 10S) and JAWS Raw (58°; 12X)

Putter: Odyssey White Hot OG Rossie
