‘Tiger Woods of WWE’ John Cena Has a Special Connection With Golf

It’s not unusual for athletes of one sport to occasionally enjoy another sport. In fact, it’s rather common, and they play it as a leisure sport. For example, John Cena is originally a pro-wrestler but he has often been seen on the golf course.

Does John Cena like to play golf?

There’s no ounce of doubt that Cena likes to play golf. However, it’s not an everyday thing. He enjoys it occasionally.

“I play golf once in awhile. I certainly love to train. I’m also a big fan of NASCAR and Japanimation. I know the two don’t go together, but I’m just telling you what I enjoy. My favorite anime movie is Fist of the North Star.” H/t Men’s Journal

But, John Cena also knows that if he’s playing it as a leisure sport, he wants to have the most relaxing experience. Hence, he has a favourite beer to pair with the times he plays golf.

Which beer is John Cena’s favourite for golf?

During an interview, The Champ revealed that Michelob Ultra is his favourite beer for golf. Reason being, Ultra is light and refreshing, which makes it perfect for a golf course beer.

Considering the game is played under the sun, Michelob Ultra is a good way to refresh oneself. Additionally, it’s light enough to enable him to play 18-holes without affecting his judgement.

Therefore, he’s usually opting for Michelob Ultra when he’s on the golf course.

But, it also depends on when he’s on the golf course. For example, he’s seen on a golf course in a movie and he’s definitely not keeping it light over there!

One of the scenes of his comedy film Vacation Friends begins on the golf course, and Cena is seen driving a golf cart.

The movie was such a hit that he signed a contract for a second part almost immediately.

However, let’s not think that John Cena plays golf only during his own or for a movie. There are events where he doesn’t back out from swinging the club such as charity events.

Has John Cena played in WrestleMania Charity Golf Tournament?

The Champ was seen alongside other WWE Superstars at the WrestleMania Charity Golf Tournament.

It was a good day for him to mingle with the pro-wrestlers who shared the same love for the game like he did, and others who wanted to be a part of the golf course!

As mentioned, Cena plays golf as a leisure sport, so there’s no hard and fast rule for him to be absolutely perfect at it.

Comparing his golfing skills with a professional

It’s safe to assume that John Cena likes to play the game but he is not a pro. He knows how to swing the club, the rules, and other factors. But, it’s not the way he knows his way around the ring.

One may not be able to see him in the ring because he’s that fast with his movements, but one can see him on the golf course!

In fact, there may never come a day when John Cena will pursue the sport as a full-time career or enter into competitive golf tournaments.
