This is Christian Pulisic’s second World Cup, but soccer isn’t everything to him – though it’s certainly a major part of his life. He recently told People magazine that he intentionally separates his personal life from the sport. “I want my time away from the field to be about more than just soccer,” Pulisic explained, adding that he focuses completely when it’s time to train and play.
When he’s not playing soccer, Pulisic enjoys golfing, a hobby introduced to him by his father at a young age. He’s also confessed to being “addicted” to chess! Beyond sports, Pulisic is self-taught on the guitar, having learned through YouTube and apps during his time in Germany. “I’ve never had a lesson,” he shared in a 2022 campaign with Bose.
