Golf: Odemwingie switches profession

Former Super Eagles forward, Peter Odemwingie, is now a professional golfer following his graduation from golf school.

“It’s motivating being around people who have the drive to achieve and get this PGA Member badge on your chest!” he told the Professional Golfers Association (PGA) official website.

The 42-year-old was a popular figure during his stint in the Premier League with West Bromwich Albion, Cardiff City and Stoke City.

He represented Nigeria at two FIFA World Cups and won an Olympic medal in 2008.
