Former US Open champion Wyndham Clark kickstarted Masters week in style by hard-launching his relationship with new girlfriend Emily Tanner.
The happy new couple were seen together during the Par 3 contest at Augusta on Wednesday, with fitness influencer Tanner alongside Clark in white Masters overalls as his caddie for the day.
Clark clearly relished Tanner, 31, being alongside him, later sharing a picture of the pair together on his social media with the caption: ‘Par 3 with my good luck charm.’
His post was met with widespread celebration – model and golf WAG Jena Sims, married to Brooks Koepka, commented: ‘Hard Launch!!’
Another comment, from NFL agent Jacquelyn Dahl, said: ‘Historic hard launch!’ alongside three applauding emojis.
Prior to Tanner, the 32-year-old Clark had been in a long-term relationship with Alicia Bogdanski.

They had been dating since late 2021, having met through mutual friends. Bogdanski even featured on the popular Netflix show ‘Full Swing’, during the third season.
It is not clear when the couple split but Bogdanski had previously spoken at length over being a supportive influence on Clark’s career.
She told Golf Digest in 2023: ‘If I see him overthinking something, I try to pull him back down, get him grounded and make him see things in perspective.’
Clark has had his moments of controversy in the past, too.
Two years on from his Major triumph, he was banned from Oakmont Country Club – the host of the 2025 US Open – after smashing a locker in the clubhouse after he missed the cut.
Oakmont Country Club president John Lynch wrote a letter after the tournament saying that Clark’s ban would be lifted if he pays for damages, donates money to charity and takes an anger management course.
‘I’ve had a lot of highs and lows in my career, especially this year some lows. I made a mistake that I deeply regret. I’m very sorry for what happened,’ Clark said the following week.
‘But I’d also like to move on, not only for myself but for Oakmont, for the USGA, and kind of focus on the rest of the year and things that come up.’
Clark also damaged a T-Mobile sign at Quail Hollow, home of the 2025 PGA Championship, that same summer.
