Golf influencer Paige Spiranac has expressed her excitement after spotting herself in the newly released trailer for Happy Gilmore 2. The highly anticipated sequel to Adam Sandler’s iconic 1996 golf comedy is set to premiere on Netflix on July 25, 2025, and Spiranac’s cameo has already generated a buzz among fans.
A Dream Come True for Spiranac
Spiranac, a former professional golfer turned social media star, has long been a fan of Happy Gilmore. Seeing herself in the trailer was a surreal moment for her, prompting her to post on social media:
“The fact that I’m in the Happy Gilmore 2 movie is actually insane lol check me out in the trailer!”
Her appearance is brief but memorable. In the trailer, she plays a Dick’s Sporting Goods employee working in a golf simulator. When Sandler’s character, Happy Gilmore, takes a signature power shot, the force of the swing causes chaos, and Spiranac’s reaction is a mix of shock and amusement.
A Cameo-Filled Sequel
Happy Gilmore 2 has been described as “cameo-palooza,” featuring appearances from various golf and sports personalities. Alongside Spiranac, other big names include Travis Kelce, Rory McIlroy, and Scottie Scheffler. Additionally, global music sensation Bad Bunny has a major role as Happy’s caddie.
The film also sees the return of some original cast members, including Christopher McDonald reprising his role as the infamous Shooter McGavin and Julie Bowen returning as Virginia Venit. The plot appears to focus on Happy’s journey as a legendary golfer, his evolving relationship with his daughter (played by Margaret Qualley), and his continued rivalry with McGavin.
Fan Reactions and Social Media Hype
Since the trailer’s release, Spiranac’s involvement has been widely discussed by fans, many of whom were thrilled to see her in a major Hollywood production. Her tweet about the cameo quickly went viral, further cementing her reputation as one of golf’s most influential figures on social media.
While her role in the film is minor, the impact of her appearance is significant. Given her popularity in the golfing world and online, it’s likely that her involvement will bring even more attention to the movie when it premieres later this summer.
With Happy Gilmore 2 bringing back the energy of the original film while adding new faces, including Spiranac, fans have a lot to look forward to when the movie hits Netflix in July.
