Heavyweight boxing champion Anthony Joshua took to social media to reveal his new passion for golf, clearly unaware of the stigma surrounding iron head covers in a golf bag. 

Joshua, who will defend his heavyweight titles against Kubrat Pulev behind closed doors on December 12, posted an image of him down the local practice range with the caption: "Where are my golfers at? I need some lesssssssssons famalam! My teks is shocking."
