Spieth also revealed the scenes he filmed were alongside Fowler, Collin Morikawa, Xander Schauffele and Keegan Bradley, but he didn't offer any specifics about the scenes or the story.
John Daly revealed earlier this year that he had also filmed a scene for the movie. Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce has also been confirmed to have a cameo appearance.

AEW star Maxwell Jacob Friedman is also appearing in the movie as one of Happy Gilmore's sons.
Specific plot details have been kept under wraps, but Sandler said on Kelce's podcast in August that Happy is "a bit of a mess" when the movie begins and he is trying to get things back on track.
Sandler, Julie Bowen, Allen Covert, Christopher McDonald and Dennis Dugan are all returning to reprise their roles from the original movie. Sandler and Tim Herlihy, who co-wrote the original, also wrote the script for the sequel.
Trevino also had a small role in the 1996 movie as a golf pro who disapprovingly shakes his head at various times when Happy Gilmore makes a mistake. He also has the memorable line "Grizzly Adams did have a beard" to Shooter McGavin.
Netflix greenlit the sequel in May and production began in September. The streaming service has not yet announced a premiere date for the movie.
