While professional golfers are busy with the ongoing season, celebrities as well as athletes from other sports are also enjoying the 18-hole sport at the 8AM Golf Invitational. Having been a regular competitor in the LPGA back in the day, the retired golfer Michelle Wie West returned back to the golf course for the amateur event. Though many fans were excited to watch the former golfer competing once again, it was also her teammates and competitors in the event who caught everybody’s attention.

8AM Invitational is an amateur team golf event conducted annually with a field stacked with 28 celebrities. From pop singer Justin Timberlake and late-night show host Jimmy Fallon to NFL stars Travis Kelce and JJ Watt, the Wynn Golf Club in Las Vegas didn’t fall short in glamour. With some of the biggest names from the entertainment industry present, who did Wie West pose with?
