Chris Bumstead, a bodybuilding legend, and social media influencer often grabs fans’ attention on social media via his intense workouts and ripped physique. However, 4x Mr. Olympia Classic winner recently tried something out of his area of expertise – golf. The 28-year-old shared a video of himself playing golf, but it didn’t go quite as planned.

In the video, CBum can be seen attempting to hit a golf ball but failing miserably, with the ball barely leaving the ground. The current Mr. Olympia Classic title holder recently made a humorous reference to golfing legend Tiger Woods on a reshared Instagram story of photographer Calvin Youttitham.

Although the star bodybuilder gave an excellent try with a power swing, he lacked precision, resulting in the ball barely leaving the ground. CBum appears frustrated with his performance, but at the same time, he also seems to be taking it in stride, laughing at his own mistakes. Rather than being discouraged by the swing-and-miss, CBum decided to make light of the situation.

He re-shared the video on his Instagram story, mentioning the legendary golfer Tiger Woods and asking “How’s that possible”, invoking Woods’ name as a nod to the sport. He also posted similar stories for his Snapchat audience. Luckily he was able to make good contact on the ball but failed to give the desired direction to it.  CBum was seen taking several swings at the ball, but each time the ball went in a different direction, with some shots barely leaving the ground. The star bodybuilder himself acknowledged that golf is not his forte as he wrote, “Muscle does not help golf”
