Robbie Williams joked "golf is the new crack" after turning his life around following his battle with drugs and alcohol.
The British singer, 45, discussed his past demons in an interview with Stellar magazine, and explained he asked for help for his addiction.
Robbie, who recently released a Christmas album, said he's taken up the sport because it allows him to "mediate" and concentrate on other things.
Discussing his similarities between himself and American rocker Alice Cooper, who is always a fan of the golf, he said: "Alice Cooper was a raging drug addict and he used to play golf every day, and I totally get it because I'm one too."

According to the MailOnline, the 45-year-old now splits his time between the hotel in London and his Wiltshire estate.
