Ashley Chesters that dream risks turning into a nightmare in view of his wedding, scheduled for December 18th. The 31-year-old English golfer, unlike other British, Scottish, Irish and Welsh players, also thanks to an excellent start to the race, preferred to complete the first tournament of the DP World Tour without choosing to retire and return home due to travel restrictions UK taxes from and to South Africa due to the new Omicron variant.
Chesters was due to return home yesterday, with a flight from Johannesburg with a stopover in Dubai. But her plans went up in smoke due to the cancellation of the flight. And now his hope is to take another one on Wednesday 1 December, heading to London.
“But I have no idea if I will actually get away,” the Shrewsbury golfer told the media disconsolately. That once he returns home he will be forced into a ten-day quarantine period in a hotel.
And the times, in view of the wedding, are tight. A new career as a mental coach, alongside some of the best golfers in the world to drag them to success and support them in times of difficulty. This is what Michael Phelps, the most decorated athlete in the history of the Olympics, seems to have undertaken (also in the name of friendship).
A great golf enthusiast, many now define him as the “secret weapon” of green totems such as Jon Rahm, number one in the world ranking, and Jordan Spieth, the Texan who, after a long period of crisis, is back in 2021 to amaze.
“He’s a good guy, he’s been through a lot as a sportsman and he’s the greatest Olympian of all time with a lot of tricks up his sleeve. I’m not going to reveal what I asked him but I can say that he has helped me a lot in the last period. These are the revelations of the Spaniard Rahm. For the legendary swimmer, nicknamed ‘the Baltimore Shark’, important words also came from Spieth, today 12 / o in the world ranking. “The mental aspect is something I’ve worked on a lot with him lately. I’m really lucky to have him around. Besides, he’s a great lover of golf and having him now more and more in our world is an added value.” This is the opinion of Spieth who yesterday, alongside Phelps, played the Pro-Am of the BMW Championship, the second event of the Play-Offs of the Pga Tour starting today in Owing Mills (USA), Maryland.
