Moreover, credit to all the athletes who participated in this prestigious event even during these tough times. And recently, the legendary golfer Gary Player tweeted a video showing his Olympic skills.

Gary Player shows off his Olympic skills

Gary Player recently posted a video on Twitter where he was showing off his skills for the Olympics.

He said, “Going for gold! When the games were postponed last year, I was inspired to mix up my workouts and incorporate Olympics-inspired activity (was hoping I may get a late call-up). On a serious note, these Olympians are incredible. What has been your favorite event to watch thus far?”

He included a few Olympic-inspired activities in his workout, like diving, sprinting, and some powerful leg workouts. And then jokingly added a caption saying he was hoping for a late call-up this time. But he concluded by appreciating the hard work that these Olympians put in.  

Firstly, the 85-year-old South African was seen diving in a swimming pool with a backflip. And then he was pushing weights with his leg in the gym. And finally, he had a nice sprint to show that even at the age of 85, he still has a lot of firepower in him.

It is astonishing to see how Gary Player, even at the age of 85, can do all these incredible activities which even a few youngsters cannot do. And hopefully, he can continue doing all these things for a lot more years to come.
