He is well over 2 metres tall and a multi-millionaired, but Steven Adams is just like any weekend hacker on the golf course.
Like the rest of us hackers, Adams says he clings to rare good shots.
“I do (have the golf bug), but it’s very annoying, it is cliché, you smash like 20 bad shots, just trash, then you hit one good one and you’re like ‘I’m good, I knew I was good’, and then your next 50 is trash, you hold on to that one good one and it sucks
Adams admitted that he probably needed to cut into his Fortnite time to work on his golf, with a focus of hitting the ball straight.

“Honestly, you’re not wrong, I need to get off Fortnite and get on the golf course."
Adams' charity tournament kicks off in August at Windross Farm. with money raised going towards a Sports Pathways Trust - a programme designed to "to develop a student / athlete model to assist youth to achieve their potential in education, achieve success in life and address inequality in education outcome particularly for at-risk youth".
Last year's field of players included All Blacks star Beauden Barrett, Black Caps pace bowlers Tim Southee and Trent Boult and even the likes of America's Cup winner Simon van Velthooven.
The event is scheduled for August 17.
