Saquon Barkley Sparks Reaction With Threat to Quit Golf After Super Bowl Win

Barkley wants to break 80 on the golf course this year. If he doesn't, he says he may need to quit the sport as a whole.

"If I don’t break 80 this offseason… I gotta give up the game," Barkley tweeted on Tuesday. 

Those are some pretty lofty goals for the Eagles star, who admitted earlier this month that he is a 15 handicap. According to a study by the National Golf Foundation, only 5% of golfers in the world can turn in a round under 80 on a regulation course. 

That doesn't mean it's not a great goal, though, and one that many golf fans saw Barkley set for himself and relate to immediately. 

It's not often that a common football fan can look at Barkley — who stands at 6-foot, 232 pounds and runs a 4.40 40-yard dash — and relate to what he's going through. When it comes to the frustrations of trying to better your golf score, though, that's something that many people can agree on.
