Every pro golfer cameo in ‘Happy Gilmore 2’

It’s been nearly three decades since the beloved golfer/hockey player/’Price is Right’ host puncher Happy Gilmore graced the silver screen. The sequel is set to release tomorrow on Netflix, and it’s bound to have fans hooting, hollering, and most importantly, pointing at their monitors shouting ‘Oh hey! I know that person!’

Sandler’s films have become known for their cameos in recent years. He’s insisted that he prefers casting his friends and has even offered small roles in his projects to certain athletes if they achieve certain feats, as was the case with Baltimore Ravens’ running back Derrick Henry.

Given the original ‘Happy Gilmore’s’ impact on the golf community, it was reasonable to assume that several of golf’s biggest stars would clamor for an opportunity to appear in the sequel. And boy, did they.

Here are all of the golfers with cameos in ‘Happy Gilmore 2.’

Here is a list of golfers, via IMDB:

Sandler has said that there were no original plans for so many celebrity cameos, but as more stars came to film, more parts were written to fit them in.

‘I don’t know how it happened,’ said Sandler. ‘We wrote ’em, stuff. Everybody was kind enough to come. Everybody in it did a great job. Every day, someone cool would show up, and we’d hang out.’

What other athletes make appearances?
