After building up an incredible following over the past few years as one of the world’s top golf influencers, Paige Spiranac has found herself playing with some pretty big-name celebrities.

But there’s one movie star in particular that blonde bombshell might be avoiding when it comes to hitting the links.

Spiranac, a former college golfing champion, revealed some of the biggest celebrities that she has played rounds with, then also sharing which one was the absolute slowest on the course.

“At Genesis (Invitational), they did a celebrity Ryder Cup. My partner was Nick Jonas and we played against … Chris Pratt. He was very slow,” Spiranac said during an appearance this week on the Vanity Index Podcast. “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.’ He had all these people around him and he’d tell, like, these amazing stories. And we were like, ‘Hit the golf ball.’”

After her revelation began going viral, she even playfully doubled-down on it on social media.

“One thing about me is that I hate slow play lol sorry Chris,” she wrote on X while sharing the video clip.

“It took us over 3 hours and 30 min to play 9 holes for context,” she also commented on Instagram.

Before roasting Pratt, who has starred in blockbuster movie franchises like Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy and the Jurassic World series, Spiranac also shared that the most famous celebrities that she has played with were Mark Wahlberg and Justin Timberlake.

She said that herself and the two actors were in a foursome with golf legend Gary Player.

Pratt has participated in several pro-am events over the years.

In June 2024, he took part in the Workday Golden Cub Memorial Pro-Am and was paired up with Peyton Manning and PGA Tour star Rory McIlroy.
