Gareth Bale was the biggest talking point of the Wales vs USA international friendly on Thursday and he wasn't even part of the match-day squad.

The Welsh superstar was left out of Thursday's friendly as Wales drew 0-0 with the United States, as assistant coach Robert Page took charge of the game in Ryan Giggs' absence.

Wales have two Nations League matches coming up, where Bale will be a key player in the squad, but as he wasn't needed on Thursday, he decided to tune in to the action at Augusta National.

And yes you might be sitting there saying well you don't know he was watching The Masters, but trust me, he was watching The Masters.

You can't blame Bale for concentrating on the golf instead of the football action. I mean, would you rather watch a goalless draw where the result doesn't even matter, or the first round of the final major of the year, where Woods shot a 4-under par opening round?

Bale isn't the only football star to be taking an interest in The Masters this week, with Harry Kane telling Sky Sports he will be watching as much as possible, although he and Bale will both miss part of the final round on Sunday due to Nations League fixtures.

"I can't wait to be honest," said Kane on watching The Masters. "It's going to be strange seeing how the golf course sets up in November.

"We're away with England at the time so I think I might be missing the final day - we're playing Belgium on Sunday but I'll be watching as much as I can.

"It will be an interesting watch. Hopefully some of the English boys can do well and get right up that leaderboard."
