Talk about unexpected business buddies! Roommates, according to reports, two really famous celebrities are expanding their sports bar overseas from New York City to Scotland. If you haven’t deciphered the photo above yet, let us tell you who the mystery money-makers are: Justin Timberlake and Tiger Woods! For context, the singer and pro-golfer own a joint called T-Squared Social.
According to PEOPLE, the Fife Council gave Justin and Tiger permission to open the second sports bar in St Andrews, Scotland. Additionally, their location will be a restored movie theatre, formerly called New Picture House Cinema.
The former cinema opened in 1930. The building application states that the new owners will “protect and enhance the character and appearance of the conservation area.”
To do so, Timberlake and Woods plan to keep two of the theatre’s screens to offer movie screening options. In addition to films and dining, T-Squared Social will also have sports simulators, duckpin bowling, and darts.
Nonetheless, the bar is meant to serve visitors of all ages, including families, and provide between 40 to 45 part-time and full-time jobs. It will reportedly be open seven days a week.
This news comes less than a year after opening their first T-Squared Social in September 2023. The whole idea for the sports bar business came to life during a golfing session in the Bahamas.
“Justin [Timberlake] and I thought it would be cool to create a place that combines our favorite things and brings people together to just have a great time,” Tiger Woods said last year, per PEOPLE. “We always knew we wanted to do something together, and NEXUS gave us the platform to bring our idea to life.”
Their business expansion news comes weeks ahead of Justin’s scheduled court date. As previously reported, Timberlake was arrested in Sag Harbor, New York, in June for driving under the influence of alcohol after leaving a local hotel.
His next court appearance is scheduled for July 26. Given that he has a show on the same date in Kraków, Poland, it’s unclear if his representation will push for a delay.
