In a newcover story forThe Hollywood Reporter, theSpider-Manactor gave insight into his relationship with girlfriend Zendaya, 26, praising her athletic ability.
“I’ve given her a few lessons,” Holland, 27, said of golfing as a couple. “She’s very naturally talented, a real athlete, so she picked it up really quickly.”
Holland, who has been golfing since he was a kid, has taken several of his costars out on the course. Among his golfing buddies areUnchartedcostar Mark Wahlberg, who previouslydescribed himself to PEOPLE as “a gamer on the golf course,”and his fellow Marvel star Chris Pratt.
Zendaya is no newbie to the athletic world, starring in the upcoming Luca Guadagnino filmChallengers. According to the director,Zendaya did “almost” all her own tennis-playing in the film.

TheTHRinterview also offered a glimpse into Holland and Zendaya’s romance, with the two being notoriously private about their personal lives. He also noted that they are “two very busy people” in their careers.
Holland said, “Our relationship is something that we are incredibly protective of and we want to keep as sacred as possible. We don’t think that we owe it to anyone, it’s our thing, and it has nothing to do with our careers.”
That privacy hasn’t stopped the couple from hitting the town, though. Recently, Holland and Zendaya were spotted attending anUsher concert in Las Vegasand anNBA playoffs game in San Francisco.
Holland has also been buddying up with Zendaya’sDunecostar Timothée Chalamet. “I admire him,” Holland toldTHR. “I really like him as a friend. And he’s a good ally to have in a business that’s pretty cutthroat.”

Holland previouslytoldTHRback in 2021 howplaying golf helps him unwindfrom the pressures of his Hollywood stardom.
“Playing golf is what I do. I’m addicted to golf and had I not been addicted to golf, I would have had a very different career,” he explained. “It’s a nice way to disconnect from what’s going on around you. I turn my phone off and I just enjoy being outdoors with my friends, my brothers and my dad.”
