Obama is relishing his 'retirement tour' at the end of his presidency

(CNN) President Barack Obama is seeking retirement advice from a sports legend who "has some experience hanging up the cleats": former New York Yankees star Derek Jeter.

In an interview on the sports website The Players' Tribune , which Jeter founded, Obama joked with the All-Star shortstop about preparing to retire and getting old -- and the Commander-in-Chief delivered some good-natured jabs at The Captain about his own exit from the game.

"Me and you retiring are two completely different things," Jeter told Obama in a preview of the interview published Monday.

"Derek, you are somebody who has some experience hanging up the cleats here. And I'm about to retire, I'm not quite as young as you but still relatively young," Obama said.

Jeter shot back, "Thank you -- can you repeat that? 'Cause you know when you're in sports, they say you're old at 30, so thank you, I appreciate that."
