Justin Timberlake and Tiger Woods are Opening a Sports Bar in Scotland

Pop superstar Justin Timberlake and golf legend Tiger Woods are expanding their entertainment empire across the Atlantic, setting their sights on the historic town of St Andrews, Scotland.

The duo’s latest venture will see the transformation of the beloved New Picture House Cinema into a high-end T-Squared Social location.

Following the success of their New York City flagship, Timberlake and Woods’ latest upscale sports bar project will feature state-of-the-art sports simulators, duckpin bowling and darts while also preserving two original cinema screens – a nod to the venue’s rich history.

Fife Council has given the project the green light, praising its potential to revitalize the area. The renovation is expected to create 40 to 45 new jobs, providing a significant boost to the local economy. According to the documents, the plans will allow locals to “experience a broader range of cinema, dining and entertainment” and will be “crucial in helping to secure a cinema offering going forward.”

According to the project’s terms of approval, work needs to commence within the next three years.

For Timberlake, the St Andrews location holds special significance. The “Mirrors” singer is no stranger to the legendary links, having competed in the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship in 2019.

Christopher Anand, CEO of Nexus Luxury Collection, the real estate venture behind T-Squared Social, stated, “We’re committed to honoring the theatre’s legacy while creating a modern entertainment destination.”

The announcement comes at a challenging time for Timberlake, who recently faced legal trouble with a DWI arrest in Sag Harbor, New York, on June 18.

The singer addressed the incident three days later during a concert in Chicago on June 21, telling the crowd, “It’s been a tough week. I know I’m hard to love sometimes, but you keep loving me right back. We’ve been together through ups and downs, lefts and rights … but you’re here, and I’m here, and nothing can change this moment right now.”

During his June 29 performance in Boston, the singer seemed to address his arrest with a touch of humor. “So, uh, is there anyone here tonight that is driving?” Timberlake asked the cheering crowd in a fan-captured clip posted on TikTok. “No, I’m just kidding,” he quickly added.

JT’s lawyer Edward Burke Jr. has stated that he will “vigorously” defend the star against the allegations. “He will have a lot to say at the appropriate time,” Burke said in a statement.
