Golf, being the luxurious sport that it is, is often a way for athletes to calm their nerves, with Michael Jordan being the perfect example. And Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc is no different, who recently played golf with future Williams’ driver Alex Albon and his professional golfer girlfriend, Lily Muni He.

After the United States Grand Prix in Austin, Leclerc was in Los Angeles where he met up with the Thai driver. The duo enjoyed a game of golf and even teased that they could be good teammates in the sport.

However, as the checkered flag brought the United States Grand Prix to a close, Leclerc found himself in the same place that he started, and bagged twelve points for the Maranello-based team.

Now, with the upcoming Mexican Grand Prix next week, Leclerc would aim to bounce back and redeem himself at the next race this season.
