With “Happy Gilmore 2” set to (finally) release later this month, golf fans will get to see a bunch of their favorite players show off their acting skills. In the meantime, we got a, um, taste of that with a new commercial for Subway.
The ad stars Christopher McDonald, AKA Shooter McGavin, and Bryson DeChambeau, who is one of the LIV and PGA Tour stars in the long-awaited sequel. And while we’ve long known that McDonald can act, the two-time U.S. Open champ displays some solid acting chops as well.

Have a look at this short, but sweet homage to the original “Happy Gilmore.” But instead of trying to run away with a stolen gold jacket, Shooter does a grab and go with a couple collector’s cups bearing his likeness—including snatching one out of Bryson’s hands. Have a look:
That’s just an all-around well done commercial right there. And if all the current golfers are as good on screen as Bryson, this sequel is in very good hands.
