MOST people would have expected Pep Guardiola to be sitting at home cheering on West Brom as his team became champions at the weekend, not playing golf in Sandiway.
But that’s exactly what the Manchester City manager was doing.
Pep Guardiola visited the golf club to play a round with Tommy Fleetwood, Road to Dubai Champion.
Doesn’t get much better than this. Played awful but loved every minute. @TommyFleetwood1 this guy can play 😳😳never seen a second shot on the 7th hit from there before. pic.twitter.com/dHDEfWxWVM

Last Sunday, Pep’s team were crowned champions after rivals Manchester United lost at home to West Brom.
Instead of watching the game, Guardiola took the opportunity to play a round of golf before celebrating another landmark achievement in his managerial career.
After having won both La Liga with Barcelona and Bundesliga with Bayern Munich, Guardiola added the Premier League to his rich trophy cabinet, marking his eighth league title as a manager.
Manchester City took the English top division by storm this year, with most pundits electing them champions before the turn of the year.
They will have to wait until Sunday, May 6 to lift the Premier League trophy after a home game against Huddersfield.
