Wyndham Clark hard launches new girlfriend Emily Tanner at The Masters

Wyndham Clark has confirmed his new relationship with girlfriend Emily Tanner after sharing a series of loved-up photos on Instagram during Masters week.

The 32-year-old American posted the images shortly after competing in the Masters Par 3 Contest at Augusta National Golf Club, where Tanner was on the bag as his caddie.

Clark captioned the post: “Par 3 with my good luck charm,” while Tanner replied in the comments: “My love.” 

The post quickly drew attention from members of the PGA Tour, with Brooks Koepka's wife Jena Sims commenting: “Hard launch!!”

Clark, the 2003 U.S. Open champion, reportedly came out a relationship last year. 

He recently joked during an interview with Kay Adams that he changes his drivers like his girlfriends. 

"Sometimes it's nice to have a week-long girlfriend," Clark cheekily told Adams in a video you can watch below. 

Fast forward to Masters week, and Clark is loved up with his new girlfriend and social media influencer Tanner.

His new relationship with the Instagram model is now very much in the public eye at golf's first major of the season. 

Tanner, who is based in Los Angeles, works across beauty, fashion, and wellness, and is the founder of Over Social Agency. 

Emily also boasts a significant social media presence, with more than 730,000 Instagram followers — far exceeding Clark’s own following of 180.000.

Viktor Hovland also spotted with new partner at The Masters

Clark was not the only player making headlines away from the course during the Par 3 Contest.

European Ryder Cup hero Viktor Hovland was seen alongside his new girlfriend Tuva Jensen, who also took on caddie duties for the event. 

The pair shared a public moment on the 9th green, where Hovland was spotted kissing Jensen.

Moments before, Tuva nearly holed a lengthy putt (watch below). 

While Hovland has yet to post about the relationship on social media, the appearance marked a first public outing for the couple.

Form struggles ahead of The Masters

Both Clark and Hovland arrive at The Masters looking to rediscover their best form.

Clark, who reached a career-high world ranking of third in 2024, has slipped to 78th after a run of eight PGA Tour starts in 2026 without a top-10 finish. 

This week marks his third appearance at Augusta National, following a missed cut on debut and a T46 finish last year.

Hovland, meanwhile, sits 22nd in the world, down from his own peak of third in 2022. 

The Norwegian is making his seventh Masters start, with a best finish of tied seventh in 2023, and is still searching for his first major title despite an impressive haul of seven PGA Tour victories and a FedEx Cup in 2023. 

With both players accompanied by new partners at golf's first major of the season, the spotlight is not just on their performances — but whether a fresh chapter off the course can spark a revival on it.
