Largest pair sum in array Python Codewars

Task:

Given a sequence of numbers, find the largest pair sum in the sequence.

For example

[10, 14, 2, 23, 19] -->  42 (= 23 + 19)
[99, 2, 2, 23, 19]  --> 122 (= 99 + 23)

Input sequence contains minimum two elements and every element is an integer.

Solution:

def largest_pair_sum(nums):
    sort_list = sorted(nums)
    return sum(sort_list[-2:])

print(largest_pair_sum([10,14,2,23,19]))
