Overview

  • The ex-Wigan, Fulham and Hull midfielder aced a 134-yard par-three at Reigate Hill Golf Club during a DP World Tour “must-make” challenge after more than six hours and roughly 700 shots.
  • Bullard sprinted to the green and bundled with Golf Life partners Peter ‘Tubes’ Dale and Andrew as the trio celebrated, with the DP World Tour video drawing wide online attention.
  • Colin Montgomerie has said Bullard’s speed, length and touch are already sufficient to compete on senior circuits, and Lee Westwood has voiced similar support.
  • Bullard is a scratch golfer who co-runs the Golf Life YouTube channel and has made small‑tour starts, including five PGA EuroPro Tour events and a Clutch Pro Tour appearance.
  • Earlier this year he entered Open qualifying but withdrew with back trouble, a reminder of the health and scheduling hurdles that would shape any competitive push.
