    O' Brien makes new career in golf

    Ronnie O’Brien, the former underage international who hit the headlines more than a decade ago when he secured a surprise move to Juventus has embarked on a new sporting career, writes Emmet Malone. with the now 32-year-old from Bray taking up the position of assistant club professional at the The Old American Golf club in Texas.

    O’Brien spent the best years of his football career in the United States, but retired three years ago and admits the amount of free time he had on his hands when not training, allowed him to lay the groundwork for the switch.

    “When I was playing soccer, I spent a lot of my downtime on the golf course with teammates,” says O’Brien. “I fell in love with the game and making it a career felt like a natural progression.”
