Former US Open and Masters champion Rahm has had now-wife Kelley by his side throughout his seven-year professional career.
The couple first met when they were both students at Arizona State University and have been together since at least 2016 – when Kelley first appeared on Rahm’s Instagram.
Rahm wed the former college athlete in 2019 and they now have two children together.
The Spaniard’s wife was was raised in Lake Oswego, Oregeon, before graduating from Arizona State University while representing the state in javelin competitions, reported The Sun.
The couple wed in the Spanish city of Bilbao at the end of 2019. Their first child was born in April 2021 and at the time, Rahm said he would not hestitate to walk out on the 2021 Masters if his wife went into labour during the event.
But thankfully, the baby arrived early, with proud father Rahm celebrating the birth online. He wrote on Instagram: ‘Without a doubt, the greatest day of my life.’
In August 2022, the couple welcomed their second child, Eneko, with Rahm saying online: ‘Feeling grateful for another healthy boy!

‘We have had an amazing last few days soaking in these amazing moments as a family of four.’
Scottie Scheffler and his wife, Meredith Scudder, tied the knot in 2020, after six years of dating.
The couple are high school sweethearts, and met while they both attended Highland Park High School when they were just teens.
When it came time for them to head off to college, the pair both went to different schools in Texas but stayed together.
They both graduated in 2018, and the sports star popped the question two years later.
At the time, Meredith gushed, ‘YES! I can’t believe God gave me my best friend to spend the rest of my life with. Can’t wait to be your wife, Scottie! Blown away at the Lord’s faithfulness and goodness to us. [LET’S] DO THIS!’
They got married in December of that year at Arlington Hall in Dallas, with Scottie taking to Instagram to celebrate their anniversary a year later.

‘Very grateful for one year of marriage to my best friend! God is good,’ he wrote at the time.
The two have kept their romance pretty low-key other than that – with Scottie hardly ever sharing any pics with his wife to social media, and her accounts set to private. However, she is often spotted at his matches supporting him.
In fact, when the Masters kicked off she was by his side on the green. And when he won the Arnold Palmer Invitational in March 2022, she jumped into his arms to celebrate.
‘Meredith obviously knows me better than anybody, being my wife,’ he gushed during an interview at the event, per Golf.com.
‘She knows how hard it is when I don’t win. So being able to celebrate a win is pretty special, and to have my parents here for this one is extremely cool with all the sacrifices they made growing up. I’m just really pleased.’

Joining her to cheer on Team USA was Maya Lowe.
Xander Schauffele and Maya, have been together since 2014, and they too met during college, while both attending different schools.
Xander was studying at San Diego State University while his girlfriend attended the University of California, San Diego.
Maya – who was born in Japan – went on to graduate with a degree in Science and Public Health, and she also earned her Masters in Healthcare Administration from University of Maryland in 2019.
Per Golf Monthly, she now works as a manager at a Planned Parenthood in San Diego.
The couple got married in 2021 in Las Vegas, after seven years together. At the time, Xander shared the happy news via social media, writing, ‘My best friend, my wife,’ alongside a snap that showed them at the wedding accompanied by their two dogs.
‘It’s been a long time coming. … We’ve been together for quite some time and decided to make it public. We’re very happy,’ he said afterwards, while attending the Scottish Open.
Maya stays pretty private – she doesn’t have an Instagram account – but she is usually seen supporting Xander at various golf events.
He sometimes shares photos with her to his own account, and for instance, he gushed over her for International Women’s Day.
Captioning a photo with his wife and his mother, he wrote, ‘Here’s to the beautiful, strong and inspiring women in my life. Happy International Women’s Day!’
