Rush Limbaugh’s putting politics aside for putting.
The Golf Channel announced that the controversial right wing radio host will be the latest celebrity to star in “The Haney Project.”
In the third season of the series, Limbaugh will open up his golf game for critique — and hopefully improvement — by famed golf instructor Hank Haney, Tiger Woods’ former swing coach.
Filming on the series begins later this year and will air next spring.
Recently remarried Limbaugh, 59, is the third celebrity golfer to appear in the series, following in the cleats of NBA Hall of Fame player Charles Barkley and comedian Ray Romano, whose season wrapped up earlier this month.
Limbaugh, who’s been known to play in celebrity tournaments in the past, has said that friends introduced him to golf in 1997 after he moved to Florida. The biggest strengths of his game, he told badgolfer.com, are “perseverance” and “stubborness.”
Limbaugh is also set to appear in an upcoming episode of the network’s “Golf in America” show, talking about his love of the game.
