Tenor Freddie tees off at golf before getting married in the morning
OperaThe British Freddie De Tomasso, an incurable golf obsessive, was wheeled out to start the Ryder Cup competition with Nessun Dorma, normally associated with a far more universal sport.
It was decent of him to take the time because he’s getting married tomorrow morning to English National Opera soprano Alex Oomens.
Freddie De Tommaso, not Freddie De Tomasso…
Missed Nessun Dorma — just watching the matches. Go, Europe! Enjoyed the morning rout, loving the Fitzpatrick show, the rest of you, wake up. Rome looking particularly lovely this fine autumn morning.
An incurable golf obsessive. Is there any other kind?
Yes.. my neighbour told me that he, himself went on golfing trip to the Scottish highlands for his honeymoon (He didn’t take his wife because she had been before)
Beats some of the other obsessions we see on display here regularly.
