G: For you, what is one physical skill that has translated well from football to golf ?

RB: Being able to flip my hips. Turning my hips and hitting through the ball with that explosion that you have to have in football, that short-distance explosion, helps you on the golf course. I believe a lot of football players have built-in attributes that are perfect for golf. You’ve got speed, strength, mental focus and the short-distance explosion.

G: Is there anything from football that doesn’t help?

RB: The muscles. [Laughs.] They hold you back a bit.
