Ukrainian football legend Andriy Shevchenko faces a new challenge this week as he tries out his golf skills on the European Challenge Tour at the Superior Cup in Kharkiv.
Shevchenko, who plays off a handicap of two, is trying his hand at
competitive golf after a foray into politics in last year’s
parliamentary elections in Ukraine ended in failure and ridicule.
“This is the first big event for me and of course it is the first event
here in Ukraine so it’s a huge event for golf in this country,” he told
the European Tour website.
