Olympic figure Skaters abandon the rink in favour of the green
Published: 18 August 2010
Canadian Olympians Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir have left the rink behind in order to brush up on their golf skills while sporting some stylish golf clothing.The skating stars, who hail from London in Ontario, took to the links and showed off their keen sense of golf fashion.
Virtue looked stunning in her white ladies' golf shirt, which she complemented with a pink visor and skirt combo.
Moir went for the more subdued approach with a casual golf shirt in white and a generic golfing cap. He rounded off the outfit with a pair of white golf trousers.
Globe Life reports that the duo, who earned a gold medal at the 2010 Winter Olympics, explained how they became addicted to the sport after numerous invites to charity tournaments.
Virtue also told of her love for golf fashion, saying: "I love golf clothes. I have a lot of fun with the little golf skirts and vests. Oh yeah, I look the part."
The pair's latest trip comes in the same month that saw hip-hop superstars Jay-Z and Beyonce take to the green with UK rapper Tinchy Stryder.
