Golf Mommy Paige Spiranac Becomes Fans’ ‘Only Choice’ For Happy Gilmore 2; ‘Born Ready’ Exclaims the 30YO
After years of requests and pleas from golf fans, inarguably the best holiday golf movie, Happy Gilmore 2 may finally make it to the big screens. Christopher McDonald – Shooter McGavin, the pro golfer in the movie – revealed the news about a sequel in progress. He shared that Adam Sandler had shown him the script.
So, per McDonald, “It’s in the works fans have demanded.” But how would a film work without its cast? To answer that question, the golf world has participated in making its list of actors and celebrities from the golf world to star in the upcoming movie. While Tiger Woods was suggested to play Chubbs Peterson and Will Zalatoris to be Gilmore’s caddie, the golf mommy was asked to play the role of Virginia Venit (the PR lady of the PGA Tour in the movie). The list was shared by Tour Golf on X.
Later, Paige Spiranac posted a tweet of her recreating the iconic ‘Happy Place’ scene from the Happy Gilmore movie, where the actress was carrying two pints of beer in sheer loungewear. Spiranac captioned the tweet saying that she “was born ready” to play the role in the movie. The post quickly grabbed the attention of the golf world and NUCLR Golf reposted the picture, asking fans if they agreed she’d be a good choice.
