Dude Perfect's Tyler Toney chipped in for birdie at Creator Classic, but who won?
The second of three events in the Creator Classic Series in 2025 is in the books at the site of the 2025 Truist Championship. None of the contestants from the the first Creator Classic held TPC Sawgrass were in the field at Philly Cricket but there were some returners from the inaugural Creator Classic ahead of the 2024 Tour Championship.
The trio of Josh Richards, Brad Dalke and Erik Anders Lang defeated the group of Marques Brownlee, Sean Walsh and Sabrina Andolpho at Philadelphia Cricket Club's Wissahickon Course to claim the third Creator Classic title on the playoff hole after eight holes of regulation.
The team of Marques Brownlee, Sean Walsh and Sabrina Andolpho led after the eight holes of regulation at 3 over but another team was needed for the playoff and after Paige Spiranac ringed the cup on a putt, the other three teams were all tied at 7 over. That led to a three-team chip-off. Brad Dalke, who chipped second, ended up the closest, so he and Josh Richards and Erik Anders Lang advanced to the one-hole playoff.
Shot of the day
The shot of the day came on the final hole of regulation. From behind the green, in the rough and having to get over a bunker, Dude Perfect's Tyler Toney chipped in for birdie. That got his team to 7 over and into a tie for second.

Paige Spiranac's 'Niche' Gets Nod of Approval from Annika Sorenstam
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Paige Spiranac has never been just a social media personality - the 32-year-old has been shaping golf's reach for years. While she faced challenges during her brief pro golf career, stepping away from the LPGA never meant stepping away from the game. Instead, she built a brand that extends beyond the course. Be it golf rules, slow play, or the future of the sport, she always speaks her mind, and fans love her for that. Recently, the influential queen even got recognition from none other than Annika Sorenstam, the 10-time major winner and the LPGA's all-time earnings leader.

(Image Collage | Credits: Getty Images) Getty Images Speaking to Fox News Digital, Sorenstam gave her stamp of approval to Paige and other golf influencers, saying: "I think it is great. I just want more people to play, to enjoy it, to have a good time, and experience it, whether it comes from traditional golfers, you know, the way we used to watch it on TV or read about it in magazines or whatever." "Nowadays, information is shared differently, people get information in different places, so I think it is great." "They bring a different view or perspective into the sport. Whether it is fashion or trick shots, I mean they all have a little niche," she added. Spiranac has made her 'niche' undeniable over the years. Blending golf content, entertainment, fashion and viral trends, she keeps pulling in a new generation of fans. Not long ago, her presence was felt during the PGA Tour's events as well. Back in May, Spiranac hosted the Creator Classic at TPC Sawgrass, offering a fresh take on golf content, and was a key figure at the Philly Cricket Club event before the Truist Championship. The Creator Classic is today at TPC Sawgrass! I played in the first one at East Lake and today I'll be in a different role! — Paige spiranac (@LoveG20904) May 10, 2025 If that is not enough, her presence on podcasts, social media, and golf exhibitions speaks volumes. The ex-LPGA pro has kept herself deeply involved while challenging outdated norms, especially when it comes to women's apparel regulations and inclusivity. This ultimately also landed her in golf's most famous Netflix series, Happy Gilmore 2, alongside the biggest names like John Daly, Tiger Woods, Scottie Scheffler, Nelly Korda, Rory McIlroy and more. Summer just got happy-er. Adam Sandler stars in Happy Gilmore 2 arriving July 25. #TUDUM — Netflix (@netflix) June 1, 2025 Getting recognised is not just a win for Paige and other golf influencers, but a push for them to continue their efforts to expand the game. Alongside Spiranac, some other notable golf influencers are Grace Charis and Alyn, who have also built their loyal fan base over time.
