2. The Strouds Are Active in Their Faith

In 2009, Stroud opened up to BPSports.com about his faith and how important it is to him and his family.

Chris told the publication that he grew up in a Christian family, and his uncle and grandfather were Baptist preachers. When he was a child, he attended First Baptist Church in Groves, Texas.

Now with a family, Chris said he and his wife try to send the same message her learned when he was a child to his children.

According to the article, Chris attends a chapel service on Wednesday nights while on tour, and his wife often joins him when she travels along for tournaments. He said they “try to go as often as possible.”

“For the lifestyle we have, where we don’t get to go to church on Sunday or we’re traveling, it’s great to have someone out here stabilizing your life and keeping you strong in your faith,” Chris said.

3. Tiffany Remains Active in the Houston Community

Tiffany posts many photos of herself along with Chris and their daughters to social media, but otherwise keeps a low social media profile.

At home in Houston, Tiffany works with the community to make it a better place. In May 2006, Tiffany, along with other golfers’ wives, presented a $10,000 check to a Children’s Cancer Hospital in Houston.

Although Chris is rarely home because of travel on the PGA Tour, he and his wife reportedly enjoy a fine meal at a few restaurants throughout the Houston area.

According to PGATour.com, Chris and Tiffany are big fans of the restaurant Ibiza and stop there for meals whenever they can.

“They will be the first to tell you that (the chef) lives up to the hype,” the article stated.

5. The Strouds Are Active Philanthropists

Chris and his family have used being a professional golfer as an opportunity to give back to the community as much as possible. He and Tiffany aren’t shy to give to charities, and he said to BPSports.com that he is a “strong supporter” of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, playing in many fundraisers as well as raising awareness whenever possible. In addition to that, Chris also works with children through the First Tee, a youth development golf program, the publication noted.

“I’m blessed,” he said. “I try to thank God every day. Even on my bad days, I’ll try my best to say, ‘Thank you for this opportunity.’ I work on that all the time.’”

The couple also support Kids Fore a Cause and in 2016 gifted $100 to a fundraiser named Foster Cecka through Texas Children’s Hospital.

“Keep up the good work Foster,” Tiffany and Chris wrote with their donation.
