A few years into the game of patience and precision, and you’re a fan. That’s the beauty of sports—not just golf. For PGA Tour pro Adam Hadwin, it’s no surprise that he’s got a deep love for the game. But to what extent? Well, according to his wife Jessica, that love has crossed into obsession, as this golf fanatic couldn’t part with his clubs, not even on the family Thanksgiving trip.
So, it all started as a well-planned Thanksgiving getaway to Branson, and of course, it was the time to enjoy with family. Jessica, in full passenger princess mode, just hopped in the car without a second thought, trusting Adam to handle the packing. While Hadwin and his wife had barely arrived in Branson, and boom, Jessica discovered something she wasn’t expecting: Adam had quietly packed his golf clubs.
Obviously, that’s not how Jessica imagined their family trip to be. To keep things interesting on this first big festive trip, she planned “to go around the table and ask who is thankful for the election results and who is not. Gonna make sure our first Branson trip is interesting!” You see golf was not on the list!

But to give a twist to her well-planned trip, Hadwin couldn’t resist sneaking in his clubs—you know just in case. Throwing a playful jab at all golfers, Jessica wrote in her tweet, “What’s it like to always be hoping to get a quick round in, no matter the situation and setting?” Well, there is some truth to that. Golfers do have a knack for squeezing in a round whenever they can.
We just arrived in Branson, and I just realized @ahadwingolf snuck a carry bag and clubs in the car. Golfers, what’s it like to always be hoping to get a quick round in no matter the situation and setting?

Clearly, she had a lively Thanksgiving lined up, but Adam’s sneaky golf bag plot added an unexpected layer of entertainment to their trip. Well, sneaking in golf clubs on Thanksgiving isn’t exactly part of the holiday spirit, but Jessica’s playful jab more than made up for it. After all, the Hadwins are known for their hilarious back-and-forth on social media.

This PGA Tour couple is a match made in ‘humor’
If there’s one thing Mr. and Mrs. Hadwin have mastered in their personal lives, it’s the art of playful banter. Their humorous exchanges on social media have made them a fan-favorite couple, with Jessica’s razor-sharp wit often stealing the show. While Adam may be a PGA Tour pro, Jessica’s the one who keeps the internet entertained with her “lame jokes” (her words, not ours) and hilarious commentary, usually at Adam’s expense.
Jessica doesn’t just poke fun, though—she also holds Adam accountable. When he was called out for slow play at the U.S. Open, she chimed in, playfully scolding him on social media: “Just doing my part in the battle against slow play in golf.” It’s this blend of humor and tough love that has fans rooting for her as much as they do for him.

But behind the jokes is a relationship built on genuine connection. Their story began in 2014 when they met through a dating app, and since tying the knot in 2017, just weeks after Hadwin’s first PGA Tour win, their bond has only grown stronger.
Together, they prove that humor is a key ingredient to their relationship, and they’ve mastered sharing it with the world.
