Ben Affleck is known for his impressive acting skills, but it turns out that golf is not one of his hobbies. In a recent interview, the star disclosed he avoids playing because it makes him think of meth. While this may sound like a strange comparison, Affleck explained that once people start playing golf, it’s hard to stop.

During the interview, Affleck also discussed his new movie “AIR,” which tells the story of the collaboration between Nike and Michael Jordan. Despite Affleck’s dislike of the game, the actor and director met with Jordan at a golf course to obtain his approval for the movie. He even joked about his friendship with the basketball legend, saying that “none of it sounds good.”
