Morgan Freeman loves playing golf. But at 88, his main concern is whether he will be able to play the sport when he turns 90.
In an interview with AARP The Magazine, he says, “Will I still be playing golf? That’s the question.”
However, the Shawshank Redemption star reveals he is now using a cart. “I’ve been given dispensation to take the cart into places where normally they would stop the cart. Age makes a difference.”
He continues, “So I can get pretty close to the greens with the cart, but you still have to do a bit of walking. I’ve got, everybody probably noticed by now, my right foot is kind of bum. It gives me a slight limp because of the ankle. So I can only walk so much before I wear it out.”
Besides this, the veteran actor also shares what he likes about golf. “Remember we were talking just earlier about keep moving?”
“You get the most movement out of golf at my age, mind you. It’s walking, stooping, bending, swinging, cussing. It’s a great sport for older adults. It’s better than bocce ball.”
It is worth noting that Morgan will turn 90 on June 1, 2027.
