VIDEO: Multitalented Mathieu van der Poel shows off Golfing prowess

Having added a further two monument victories to his ever-growing palmares, Mathieu van der Poel has been enjoying some well-earned down time and proving cycling is not the only sport he excels in.

Milano-Sanremo and Paris-Roubaix wins alongside runner-up finishes at the Tour of Flanders and the E3 Saxo Classic, van der Poel has been arguably the most impressive rider in the whole of the peloton so far this year. With no officially scheduled racing until the Tour de Suisse however, the 28-year-old Dutchman has been relaxing on the golf course and by the looks of his swing, he's pretty talented at that also.
