The Inertia

Kelly Slater loves to golf. So much so, in fact, that he was selected as one of Golf Digest’s Golfers Who Give Back. When Golf Digest gives you an award for being a golfer, you are indeed a golfer. On September 25th, at a course twenty miles west of Paris, Slater was swinging his clubs at the 2018 Ryder Cup.

Slater competed in the Celebrity Match, where he played with some unlikely partners. After teeing off next to Michael Phelps, the Olympic medalist who is living proof pot’s not actually worth waging a war on, he went on to partner up with former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. And judging from this clip, Rice was happy to be teamed up with him.

Slater joined the ranks of other celebrities, including Samuel L. Jackson, Luke Wilson, John McEnroe, Kurt Russell, Greg Kinnear, and Nick Jonas for the US team.
