The Couple Got Married on November 24, 2018
GettyJordan and Annie Spieth got engaged on December 2017.
Annie has been a staple at PGA Tour events since Jordan began his ascent as a pro golfer. The couple got married in Dallas on Thanksgiving weekend on November 24, 2018. Jordan and Annie celebrated with a Caribbean honeymoon that included a “couple different places.”
“We went to the Caribbean,” Jordan explained to Golf Channel. “We had a good time. Went to a couple different places. It was nice after the wedding to go away and just have nothing going on. Then we both got a little bit bored, so good to be able to see other humans. It was a good time.”
Jordan admitted that it has been a bit of an adjustment getting used to wearing a wedding ring and noted that he has not gotten used to golfing with it on.
“I’m fine with [swinging] with it,” Jordan told Golf Channel. “It’s just my putting. When I’m cross-handed, [it] kind of jams into my grip. Unfortunately that means I’ll probably lose some rings. As of now, I don’t think I’m going to start playing with it on.”
Jordan was one of several notable golfers that played at the Charles Schwab Challenge as the PGA Tour resumed play after a nearly three-month hiatus as a response to COVID-19.
