Fears for Harry Potter star Tom Felton after collapsing on Ryder Cup golf course

Tom Felton has collapsed during a celebrity round of golf ahead of the Ryder Cup, sparking fears about his health.

The 34-year-old actor, who is known for playing Draco Malfoy in the Harry Potter film franchise, was playing at Whistling Straits, Sheboygan, Wisconsin, earlier today ahead of the Americans taking on the Europeans for the Ryder Cup, which starts on Friday.

A day after his birthday, Tom looked a little worse for wear as he collapsed on the 18th floor, with concerned onlookers rushing to help him.

Tom had been joined for the celebrity round by fellow celebrities Teemu Selanne, Mandy Rose, Toni Kukoc, Mike Eruzione, Stephanie Szostak, A.J. Hawk, Dan Jansen, Alessandro Del Piero, Kelly Slater and Sasha Vujacic.

He received medical treatment on the golf course before being laid down on a cart to be driven away for further treatment.

Harry Potter fans have been left not knowing the condition of Tom's health, with the actor not posting any updates on his social media pages since before starting the round today.

The actor celebrated his 34th birthday yesterday and he celebrated by posting a smiling photo on Instagram, along with a message in which he looks forward to the years ahead.

He wrote: "33 years done - good lord it’s been so much fun getting here - yet, somehow, I still feel the best is yet to come - thank you all for your love , support & sense of humour - let’s keep a good thing going - to the next 33 xx"

Tom has been a global star since he was a teenager, when he got the role of Malfoy at just 14 years old.

He returned to the film franchise during the coronavirus pandemic, putting together a virtual cast reunion, which included Jason Isaacs, who played his character's father Lucius Malfoy.

Tom also shared a clip of him watching the first of the films, Harry Potter And The Sorcerer's Stone, and he is seen getting emotional as he points out his grandfather making cameo appearances during the movie.

He tells himself to "keep it together" as he fights back tears while watching the film, which was the first adaptation of JK Rowling's hugely successful series of books.
