Victor Dubuisson: The Ryder Cup Hero Who Walked Away from Golf
In a shocking move, former Ryder Cup winner Victor Dubuisson announced his retirement from professional golf at the tender age of 33. The French golfer, who once held the 15th spot in the world rankings, has traded in his clubs for a coaching career, citing a loss of passion for the game.
Dubuisson’s decision to retire was not taken lightly. He spent an entire year preparing for his new venture, a coaching facility in Tenerife, where he offers customized programs for golfers of all levels. His dedication to coaching is evident, and he’s determined to make a name for himself in the golfing world once again.
Just as Dubuisson was about to embark on his new journey, he received an unexpected offer from LIV Golf to continue his playing career. However, after careful consideration, he declined the invitation, feeling that it would be unfair to abandon his coaching plans.
With his playing days behind him, Dubuisson is now focused on helping others improve their game. His coaching philosophy is centered around creating customized programs tailored to each golfer’s needs. He’s passionate about his work and has set his sights on becoming one of the top coaches in Europe.
Dubuisson’s professional golf career was marked by both triumph and struggle. He achieved three professional wins on the European and French tours and was part of the victorious Team Europe at the 2014 Ryder Cup. However, towards the end of his career, he found himself withdrawing from tournaments and feeling unfulfilled.
Dubuisson’s retirement from golf marks the beginning of a new chapter in his life. He’s excited to share his knowledge and experience with others and is committed to making a positive impact on the golfing world. As he looks to the future, Dubuisson is confident that he’s made the right decision, saying, “I’m not just doing this to pass the time. I have big targets and motivation. For me, it’s not a job. It’s the same mentality as competition.”
