Let's make this birthday one to remember.

36 years old (Born on July 16, 1989)

Happy Birthday, Gareth Bale! May your celebrations be as swift and spectacular as that unforgettable sprint past Barcelona's defense in the Copa del Rey final. We hope you slice through cake today with the same precision you've shown slicing through defenders at Tottenham Hotspur—making it look effortless!

From stunning Champions League bicycle kicks to electrifying Premier League goals, you've given fans countless reasons to cheer (and opponents nightmares!). Here's wishing you another year filled with incredible strikes, lightning-fast runs down the wing, and perhaps fewer golf jokes—but hey, we can't promise anything.

Enjoy your day like it's a 90th-minute winner!
