That was so annoying – Timo Werner finally reveals what annoys him the most in his Chelsea move
According to reports, Chelsea striker Timo Werner has revealed he enjoys playing golf and admitted he was annoyed to discover the closest golf course was an hour drive following his move to Chelsea.
Werner told Chelsea’s official website: “I am keen on other sports as well as football. I like to play golf with my friends and also my girlfriend, she also plays golf, and when it is good weather it is good to be outside. Otherwise, if inside, I like small sports with my friends like darts or pool or table tennis.
“On holidays sometimes I play tennis, and padel tennis which is similar. Those are a lot of fun.
“For playing golf I have a handicap, it is 28. I played for one year very seriously then I stopped a bit because I moved here to London. I started playing golf in Leipzig in my last year there and played a lot there because of Covid as there was a lot of time when we were not playing football. So by playing very seriously for one year I became good in this time, but now I don’t play so much. Most of the time now I play in the holidays.
“When I came to London, I lived in the city, directly in Chelsea, so it was always one hour to a golf course and that was annoying, so I did not play so much.
“I did play golf with Kai one time, and also one time with some of the guys from the Chelsea staff. I think Marcos [Alonso] is very good at golf as well.
“I beat Kai, I think I am bit better because I trained a lot over that year, but Kai is not bad for a beginner.”
