(This post has been updated by a new list – See Celebrity Golf Handicaps (updated))

There are quite a few that surprised me. I don’t know how I missed out on the fact that my new favorite NFL quarterback has mad skills on the links. I’m also pretty proud of the fact that I can outplay some folks like Costner, Murray and Will Smith, all who I thought were pretty decent golfers. Of course, that’s based on handicap alone. I’d almost definitely choke if I were to actually play them in person.
