Luís Figo, former Portuguese football right winger, Captain of the Portuguese National Squad, former Sporting Lisbon, FC Barcelona, Real Madrid and Inter Milan player, the 2000 European Footballer of the Year, the 2001 FIFA World Player of the year and named amongst the “FIFA 100”, for the 100 greatest living footballers, paid us a visit, and showed us he can swing a club on the Driving Range, while resident PGA Golf PRO Pedro Lemos was supervising Balaia’s Junior Summer Golf Clinics!
.
Great personality, Figo was very open-hearted and never refused a smile, a photo or an autograph to his fans!
Little Oliver, along with mom Mandy, was delighted when he got a signed autograph from Luís Figo on his shirt and a photo in the Golf Reception with the Portuguese Superstar!
We also asked Figo for his autograph, and he kindly gave it to us, wishing all the best to his Balaia Golf friends!
Obrigado Luís, és uma referência para todos nós, em Portugal e no Mundo!
Great pictures. Thanks for sharing.
