'If at first you don't succeed then quit!' Chris Hemsworth announces shock retirement from GOLF in hilarious driving range video
When world's hottest man candidate Chris Hemsworth announces his retirement from the silver screen, the world will take notice.
However when the 33-year-old's errant swing on a UK driving range led him to announce he was 'quitting' the sport, the golf community barely batted an eyelid.
The Avengers star took to Instagram on Monday to share a hilarious video flaunting his less-than-impressive skills, before taking some time to catch up with fans in Durham, England.
Not good at everything! The Avengers star took to Instagram on Monday to share a hilarious video flaunting his less-than-impressive golf skills
After putting a poor shot that flew off into the bushes, he declared in the accompanying caption: 'If at first you don't succeed then quit.'
He added comically, 'Saw the mountain, climbed it, conquered, next. #boooooring #tooeasy #makeitharder #mybackhurts'.
The attempt had started well, with the actor, sporting a pair of low-key sunglasses, looking focused as he clutched a golf club and lined up his swing.
At this point, he looked like a seasoned veteran, even pausing to re-balance his feet on the astro-turf mound he was standing on.
The Australian hunk then swiftly ripped the club into the air and brought the full might of Thor onto the unsuspecting ball.
Tantrum! After putting a poor shot that flew off into the bushes, he declared in the accompanying caption: 'If at first you don't succeed then quit'

Sadly, power was the only problem Chris' errant swing didn't suffer from, with footage showing his effort hooking wildly to the right, closer to the highway than the fairway.
Flashing a glimpse of his bulging biceps in a side-profile, Chris dressed in a simple white t-shirt and black track pants in the clip.
Fans: The hunk has been on location filming the Avengers sequel in the United Kingdom
