Daisy, will you be my Mrs Plant

LOVE OPENS FOR ALFIE

- By PAUL DONNELLEY news@dailystar.co.uk

NEW Brit golf star Alfie Plant had the internet in stitches last night when it was revealed his girlfriend is called Daisy Meadows.

Alfie, who used to be a postman, has seen his career blossom as he won the silver medal at The Open as the best amateur.

But, while he was the leading nonprofess­ional at Royal Birkdale, it was his romantic life that was creating waves.

The 25-year-old told an interviewe­r on the course when asked about his love life: “Yeah, Daisy Meadows.

“Will draw a few chuckles at the church if things go as planned.

“All the girls out there, I end up with a Daisy. What’s the chances?”

If Alfie had been a profession­al, he would have earned a whopping £20,000 at The Open. Asked how he could have spent that money, Millwall fan Plant said: “If you ask my girlfriend, she would definitely say a ring.”

The internet was delighted by the name, with fans taking to Twitter. Brantley Romaine said: “From the you-can’t-makethis-stuff-up department: Alfie Plant’s girlfriend’s name is Daisy Meadows.”

And Teryn Schaefer tweeted: “This isn’t real, is it?! #fakenews.”

Megan Darlington wrote: “This is one of the best things ever, amateur golfer Alfie Plant gets top amateur prize and his girlfriend is Daisy Meadows nice story.”

James Toney tweeted: “Alfie Plant – Silver Medal secure – gets a great reception on the first tee at #TheOpen.

“His girlfriend is called Daisy Meadows. No joke.”
