Meet the glam Wags of The Masters stars, from the daughter of an ice hockey legend to a ‘Krispy Kreme connoisseur’

IT’S time for The Masters.

The world’s greatest golfers will descend upon Augusta for the prestigious tournament, where the purse is a mega $18million (£14.2million).

Jon Rahm is looking to defend his title, after he became the fourth Spaniard to win, shooting a three-under-par 69 in the final round for 276 (–12), four strokes ahead of runners-up Brooks Koepka.

Watching proceedings closely will be the player’s Wags.

From the stunning daughter of a US ice hockey legend to a self-confessed donut fanatic, SunSport presents The Masters stars’ partners.

Paulina Gretzky

Two lovebirds that are still going strong are Dustin Johnson and American beauty Paulina Gretzky.

They began dating in 2012, although amusingly Paulina’s famous dad ice hockey legend dad Wayne Gretzky came along.

“I don’t know if you can call it a date since my dad tagged along,” she joked.

Despite Wayne being a third wheel, they embarked on a whirlwind romance and were engaged within a year.

The Gretzky family are considered to have helped Johnson find his best form in winning two majors.

Johnson and Gretzky didn’t marry until 2022, when they finally said their ‘I do’s’ at a stunning ceremony at the luxurious Blackberry Farm in Tennessee.

The pair have two sons together, Tatum and River.

Nikki Guidish

Gorgeous Nikki, 32, is married to Patrick Cantlay.

A former model, she is now a practicing doctor of pharmacy – having given up on glam photoshoots.

Incredibly, Nikki also competed in the world of bodybuilding.

When she was younger, she appeared on US TV’s the Home Shopping Network modelling footwear.

Jena Sims

Beautiful American actress Jena Sims, 35, married Koepka in 2022.

She competed in the Miss Teen USA beauty pageant in 2007, but failed to place, and has since become an actress and a model.

She has starred in Attack of the 50 foot Cheerleader, a comedy horror movie filmed in 2012.

She also appeared in Three-headed Shark Attack, in which a mutated great white kills former WWE champion Rob Van Dam.

Her other roles include Sharknado 5: Global Swarming, and TV shows, Entourage, Dexter and One Tree Hill.

On her Instagram account, she calls herself a self-confessed ‘Krispy Kreme connoisseur’.

Kelley Cahill

2023 Masters winner Jon Rahm is married to his stunning college sweetheart, Kelley.

The pair met at Arizona State University, where they lived together for two years there before they finally became a couple.

And they were once almost torn apart by a fiercely competitive tennis match they played against each other.

Cahill said: “He’s killing forehands … crosscourt zingers, and I’m thinking, ‘This can’t be right’.

“He was so good. I was so upset. I was actually mad for a day or two. We have not stepped foot on a tennis court since.”

Rahm married Cahill in the Spanish city of Bilbao at the end of 2019.

Alisson Stokke

Californian beauty Alisson, 35, married Rickie Fowler in 2019.

The brunette is a pole vaulter who rose to fame after photos of her competing in 2007, aged 17, went viral.

The photos gained the attention of sports blog “With Leather”, who have a mainly male audience, and from there the images went worldwide, with comment pieces from The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Der Spiegel and even the BBC.

Stokke wasn’t entirely happy with her new found fame, telling The Washington Post: “It just all feels really demeaning.

“I worked so hard for pole vaulting and all this other stuff, and it’s almost like that doesn’t matter.

“Nobody sees that. Nobody really sees me.”

Stokke just missed out on qualification for the US team for 2012 Olympics in London.

Erica Stoll

Rory McIlroy moved on from Carolina Wozniacki with Erica Stoll, who he married in 2017 in a ceremony in Northern Ireland.

Erica was working for the PGA when Rory met her as the manager of the Championship Volunteer Operations for the PGA of America in 2011.

She has always had an interest in sports, leading her to understand the pressures of his job.

They actually first set eyes on each other in 2012 when Rory nearly ruined the Ryder Cup Miracle at Medinah by oversleeping.

Erica was the PGA employee who came to his rescue before police rushed him to the course that September morning.

Katherine Gaal

Seen cheering Matt Fitzpatrick on at The Open last year was blonde beauty Katherine.

A former Miss Jersey runner-up from 2014, the couple made things official with a social media post – then Fitzpatrick later shared a heartfelt message to Katherine on Valentine’s Day.

They have attended several golf tournaments together, including the RBC Heritage, which Fitzpatrick won in 2023.

Earlier that month, Fitzpatrick played alongside Katherine at Augusta for the Par 3 contest at the The Masters.

Katherine looked the part in her green Masters cap and matching trainers but she is not a natural when it comes to golf, having previously worked as a tennis professional at Bay Head Yacht Club in New Jersey.
