A lifelong golf fan, when the casting call came in with requests for jacket size it seemed too good to be true &#8211; but if you watch the champion&#8217;s dinner scene of the final film, you&#8217;ll see David onscreen alongside Adam Sandler. David had the good fortune of being seated next to Ed Kelce, father to Travis Kelce &#8211; for those not in the know, Ed was actually cast BEFORE his son. David had a wonderful time onset those two days alongside so many living golf legends, and it will be a treasured memory of his to canonically join the ranks of the Gold Jackets. Thank you to Adam Sandler and the team at Netflix for the opportunity! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">David Foubert is a SAG-AFTRA and AEA union actor, voice-over artist, and playwright with classical training and extensive dramatic and comedic lead experience, available for local bookings in the New York\/New Jersey\/Pennsylvania tri-state area, as well as short-term bookings in the Seattle metro and Orlando\/Polk County.
