Zeta-Jones in golfing gaffe

Catherine Zeta-Jones' golfing skills were so awful during a practice round prior to the start of celebrity tournament the All Star Cup, her caddie was convinced she was a newcomer to the sport.

The Welsh actress, who represented Europe while husband Michael Douglas played for America in the televised contest, admits she suffered a crippling attack of nerves, despite having enjoyed whacking balls for the best part of a decade.

She says: "It was horrific. My caddie said: 'Is this the first time you've played golf?'

"I cried on the seventh hole, I went: 'Oh my God, I've been playing for seven years."
