Just some quick tidbits about how awesome Chris Pratt’s life is:
– He’s been the lead role in the No. 1 and No. 2 highest grossing movies in the US at the same time. Noted by Deadline, with Guardians of the Galaxy made over $110 million in its opening weekend and bumped The Mario Brothers Movie to No 2. So it just goes to show the only one that can beat Chris Pratt at the box office is Chris Pratt. He’s impossible to wipe away from the big screen…

– He’s married to Katherine Schwarzenegger which means his father in law is…

I’m guessing Chris and Arnold have played a few golf rounds together. Arnold’s life and career are so amazing it would be incredible to play a round with him, smoke a few cigars, and just listen to his stories. If I had a list of Top 10 famous people I’d like to play golf with, Arnold is on there for sure. Any time I hear Arnold’s name in the same sentence as golf, I instantly think of a story my brother told me. My brother didn’t see Arnold himself but got this story secondhand and it matches this story posted on Reddit.
Classic joke by Arnold.
So to recap Chris Pratt is the biggest movie star on the planet, has Arnold Schwarzenegger as a father-in-law/golf partner, and just like everything else Chris Pratt touches I’m sure he’s a scratch golfer. Hold that thought…
That frustration is real and any golfer knows it. Sorry Chris you might have the world by the short and curlies but golf is the great equalizer. You might have piles of money, an amazing career, an awesome family BUT you chunk your bunker shots just like the rest of us. You’re one of us.

The sound bite above is a clip from his round with Nick Faldo, (video below) he’s only been playing for 5 years and is a single digit handicap, so clearly he’s got some game.
Chris recaps a great story of meeting Tiger Woods on the golf course (10:50), you gotta check it out.
For some twisted reason it gives me comfort knowing that even the great Chris Pratt struggles with golf. Why does that give me comfort? I don’t know and I’m not paying a therapist to figure it out because I think in the end, it’s just golf. Hit ‘em straight.
