O'Driscoll in golf deal

Ireland rugby ace Brian O'Driscoll has signed an endorsement deal with the Seafield Golf & Country club in Co Wexford where he intends to hone his golfing expertise when time finally allows.

Brian plays off nine, although he was once down to seven, and one of his targets this summer is to get back down again.

"I love playing the game, it relaxes me and helps take my mind off rugby," said the Ireland skipper. "We don't find that much time for golf these days but that won't always be the case. And at Seafield we have a spectacular course designed by Peter McEvoy and playing to 6,557 yards off the medal tees. The views of the Irish Sea are magnificent and I have never putted on such amazing greens."
