“They were announcing us on the tee and they (Timberlake, Wahlberg and Player) went first. It was so rude of them to make me go last and they (announcers) were going accomplishment after accomplishment after accomplishment after accomplishment and then they like announced me. It was like one thing that they said and I was like, ‘Thanks, thank you so much.’ That’s brutal!”
Spiranac laughed it off and added about meeting Timberlake’s wife Jessica Biel:
“But that was such an incredible day and he’s so great. He’s even better in person and his wife Jessica Biel… massive girl crush on her.”
Spiranac teamed up with Justin Timberlake at the Bass Pro Shops Legends Competition at Top of the Rock 2019.
