Lebron James Swaps Basketball For Birdies On The Golf Course

While it’s hard to picture NBA legend LeBron James trading in his basketball for a golf club, the Lakers star has revealed his surprising new obsession. Recently, he admitted that he’s “addicted” to golf, raising eyebrows and approval from fans who are ready to see him shine on a new stage.

LeBron Shares His Excitement

In true SoCal style, LeBron took to social media to share his love for his new hobby. He posted on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter), “I love watching YouTube golf videos!! Random I know. lol. SO COOL!” The post took off, racking up 8 million views and countless comments from fans cheering him on.

“You just like my dad, Bron! We should all sit down and watch golf vids sometime, haha!” wrote one fan, while another enthused, “How bout you come and take a golf lesson with me? I’ll change your game!”

Fans Rave About LeBron’s Enthusiasm

The King of the court seems ready to conquer the green as well. Back in July, the Golf Channel even shared a clip of him practicing on the course, captioning, “LeBron James is catching the golf bug this offseason.” Fans flooded the comments, convinced of his natural talent in yet another sport.

LeBron Embraces His Criticism

While most fans were thrilled, a few sported skepticism, suggesting he stick to basketball. But knowing LeBron, criticism is just fuel for his fire. “Something tells me he’s got the best coaches in the world reaching out to him already. He gonna be just fine ;)” said a supportive fan.

LeBron, who’s never shied away from sharing his off-court moments, continues to post about his golfing adventures. Whether he’s sharing a clip of a perfect swing or engaging with fans, the three-time Olympic gold medalist seems to be enjoying every moment out on the course, with his fans cheering him on every step of the fairway.
