Charles Leclerc golfs during Princess of Monaco Cup

An unprecedented golf tournament took place at Monte-Carlo Golf Club on 3 October. The Princess of Monaco Cup had 18 teams, with two amateur players and one celebrity per team, competing in a friendly game of Scramble. Sponsored by Richard Mille, proceeds went to the Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation.  The funds raised will be going towards financing the Princess Charlene Municipal Swimming Pool of Monaco in La Turbie as well as towards swimming lessons at Awutu-Winton High School in Ghana.

Between racing the Russian Grand Prix and the Japanese Grand Prix, Charles Leclerc took off his racing helmet and picked up a golf club. Charles Leclerc, who is an ambassador for the Foundation, was one of 18 celebrity players who participated in the event.  Other competitors included celebrities from the worlds of beach volleyball, football, rugby, F1, Formula E, cycling and golf.  Bjorn Maaseide (Beach Volley), José Cobos (football), David Coulthard (F1), Diana Luna (golf), David Tanner (cycling) and many others competed for a good cause.  The competing teams were formed by drawing lots the day before the competition, at the Yacht Club of Monaco.
