It’s that time of year again. It’s a tradition unlike any other. It’s the Masters. Arguably the most important major in golf to come each April to Augusta National in Augusta, Georgia.
As avid golfers, my husband and some other male family members of mine attend each year. I am typically not a fan of the sport myself. I will watch on Sunday to see who wins, but this year something has been a little different. I’ve found myself much more interested because of social media, and not really for the golf.
This year, I am seeing the perspective of the tournament from the wives and girlfriends of these Masters golfers. I am a TikTok junkie and I have seen video after video of behind the scenes looks at sponsor parties and outfits of the day this year. These ladies are stunning and certainly have names for themselves outside of being the better halves to these talented athletes.
While I was familiar with wife of Dustin Johnson, Paulina Gretzky (also daughter of hockey great Wayne Gretzky), I was interested in learning more about these other stunning WAGS of Masters golfers I came across on my FYP. For those of you not familiar with TikTok, FYP means “For You Page”.

As we’ve seen with the relationship of NFL player Travis Kelce and girlfriend Taylor Swift, the fans of the girlfriends and wives will be attracted to the sport if they think they can catch a glimpse of the ladies. I’m sure we will see the viewership up this year with the presence of these ladies and their behind the scenes videos on TikTok and Instagram.
