Slowest golfer ever’ – Paige Spiranac doesn’t hesitate when asked most famous person she’s played with

Published

on

The guy everyone rolls their eyes at because he takes forever on the golf course.

Ex-pro Spiranac rose to fame on Instagram and X, formerly known as Twitter, boasting more followers on social media than Tiger Woods.

She previously revealed the WM Phoenix Open is uncontrollable but one event could be even rowdier.

Now, the professional golfer turned model has claimed to have played behind the slowest golfer in the world.

She appeared on the Vanity Index Podcast to talk about various topics, including what it was like playing golf with celebrities.

She was asked who the most famous person was who she has ever golfed with.

Her answer gave more than just a game, but a critique of this certain A-lister.

“At Genesis they did a celebrity Ryder Cup and my partner was Nick Jonas, and we played against Chris Pratt,” Spiranac explained.

“He was very slow. Might be the slowest golfer I’ve ever played with.

“Super nice guy, unbelievably slow.

“We were like four holes behind on a nine hole little thing, and they were like, ‘You need to speed it up.’

“And he had all these people around him and he’d tell these amazing stories, and we were like, ‘Hit the golf ball. Hit it!'”

Spiranac is no stranger to playing with famous faces.

In 2024, she linked up with two-time major winner Bryson DeChambeau for a collaborative video which went viral among the golf community.

And speaking to talkSPORT at Super Bowl LIX’s ‘Radio Row’, Spiranac reveals she was blown away by the in-person experience.

The American model said: “Being able to play with him in person is outrageous.

“Watching him hit the golf ball, you get breathless. The sound of it, how far it flies… it’s something like you’ve never seen before.

“He’ll hit it a little bit on the toe and he’ll say, ‘Oh man, it’s only going to go 310 yards’. And he’s using my 5 wood!”

But not too many people can say they have golfed with Chris Pratt.

And not too many people probably have the patience to play at Pratt’s pace.

Say that 10 times fast.

The famous actor is no stranger to the sport of golf and seems to really enjoy it.

Express Sport brings you the latest tennis news from the Paris Masters.

We’re reaching the business end of the Paris Masters, as eight players become four in the French capital. Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming favourite to lift the trophy after Carlos Alcaraz was dumped out by Cameron Norrie in the Spaniard’s opening match. Norrie was then beaten by Valentin Vacherot, whose amazing 10-match winning streak at Masters 1000 level came to an end when he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.

Canadian star Auger-Aliassime will face Alexander Bublik in the semis. Bublik defeated Alex de Minaur, who is among those to have already qualified for the year-end ATP Finals. Sinner is through to his first Paris Masters semi-final after beating Ben Shelton. He’ll face defending champion Alexander Zverev, who survived a tough match against Daniil Medvedev.

Novak Djokovic is not involved in the Paris Masters, having decided to skip the event for the second year in a row, but he has learned his fate in the draw of next week’s ATP 250 in Athens. And over in Riyadh, the WTA Finals are about to get underway.

Tennis fans across the globe are rallying behind Holger Rune, after the Danish star shared an emotional but determined message following his devastating Achilles injury that abruptly ended his 2025 season.

The 22-year-old, known for his fierce competitiveness and electric energy on court, was forced to retire during the Stockholm Open semifinals after collapsing in pain mid-match against Ugo Humbert. Moments later, Rune confirmed what fans feared — a torn Achilles tendon, one of the toughest injuries any athlete can face.

But instead of silence or despair, Rune chose to face the challenge head-on. In a heartfelt message posted to social media, he wrote:

“It’s gonna be a while before I can step on court again… It’s tough. I had so much joy out there, and it’s unbearable to think I won’t feel that energy for some time. But I’ll be back — stronger, wiser, and more grateful than ever.”

His words, filled with pain yet overflowing with resilience, immediately resonated with millions. Fellow players, coaches, and fans flooded his post with encouragement, calling him a “fighter”, a “true champion in spirit”, and the embodiment of perseverance.

Rune has already undergone successful surgery and, in a move that stunned many, shared photos of himself training from a seated position — refusing to let recovery stop his momentum. The images showed a young man focused not on what he’s lost, but on what he can rebuild.

Even as he faces months of rehabilitation, Rune’s story has become a symbol of mental toughness and grace under pressure. His family and team remain by his side, reminding the tennis world that this setback doesn’t define his career — it refines it.

As one fan beautifully wrote:

“He may be off the court, but his spirit is still winning matches.”

For Holger Rune, this isn’t the end of a season — it’s the start of a comeback story that could inspire a generation. 💥🔥
