Tyson Fury believes hitting golf balls 400 yards during rounds with his coach SugarHill Steward has added to his power ahead of his fight with Dillian Whyte.
The world heavyweight champion will defend his title for the second time on April 23 i n front of a record-breaking 94,000-strong crowd at Wembley Stadium. And between gruelling training sessions in the boxing gym, he has been taking to the greens in Lancashire to improve his golf game.
Fury is no stranger to odd training methods, having previously claimed among other things to have doused his hands in petrol ahead of his rematch with Deontay Wilder. And he argues that improving his golf game has had a direct effect on how powerfully he will punch in the ring.
“I've been playing a lot of golf in Morecambe, with trainer SugarHill, to prepare for this fight," he told reporters at a virtual press conference last night. “And that has really improved my right hand and putting my shoulder really into my shots.
“I'm driving the ball around 400 yards and I think it really has helped.
