Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence might have his next golfing partner.

Lawrence and former NBA star JR Smith each appeared in a recap on The Masters' official page on Saturday, with Smith saying 'Let's Play a Round' on X to Lawrence.

The Jaguars' franchise quarterback has been a frequent golfer throughout his career, with Jacksonville help serving easy access to some of the top tournaments each year, with Lawrence noting he went to the Masters in 2021 just days before his wedding. Smith meanwhile has turned to golf in his post-NBA career.

"Obviously I am a big Tiger fan. I feel like there aren't many people who aren't," Lawrence said when asked about his impression of Tiger Woods' performance this weekend at The Masters.

"There is something about him. Just the way when he shows up to play, the amount of eyes on him, the amount of pressure, and just the way he has been able to deliver for so many years. I think it is crazy to watch from afar. It has been crazy to watch him this weekend. Obviously you can even see him today he is in some pain and battling through it and trying to play. And it is impressive. I mean I am 24 years old and there are days I get off the golf course and I am like gaalee, I am sore and I played like two rounds in five days."

Lawrence just finished his third season with the Jaguars after becoming the No. 1 pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.
