Women on Social Media Bombard Masters Winner Jordan Spieth with Declarations of Love
Jordan Spieth won more than the coveted 2015 PGA Masters green jacket at the Augusta National Golf Club on Sunday, reports TIME.
When Spieth won the Masters by four shots at 18-under-par 270 on Sunday, he matched Tiger Woods' 18-year-old scoring record and got an unexpected surprise: women flooding his Twitter account with declarations of love and marriage proposals stacking up in the comment section of his Instagram account.
To the disappointment of women everywhere, Spieth does have a long-time girlfriend. Her name is Annie Verret, 21.
His girlfriend did not deter some, like @aud_estelle who tweeted on Sunday, "I need Jordan Spieth to break up with his girlfriend and marry me."
Verret was watching from the sidelines Sunday as her 21-year-old high school sweetheart won the Master's Golf Championship in the final round. The two celebrated his win with an adorable embrace that was enough to make any girl a bit jealous.
Growing up in Dallas, Texas, the second-youngest player to win the Masters and Verret began dating in high school and maintained a long-distance relationship while they attended different colleges, reports The Bleacher Report.
Verret attended Texas Tech, where she excelled as a business major, earning a 4.0 GPA, making the dean's list and being named to the President's Honor Roll twice. She currently is an event coordinator at The First Tee of Greater Dallas.
Spieth attended the University of Texas, where he excelled in golf and led the team in securing many victories, such as winning the NCAA title during his sophomore year, and being named Player of the Year.
He became a golf pro in 2012.
If his handsome stature of 6-foot-1 at 185 pounds isn't enough to love, he took home $1.8 million in prize money on Sunday, reports SB Nation.
Verret is a lucky girl -- those in the know say Spieth is an all-around great guy.
While there has been no marriage proposal for Verret, the Daily Mail reports that the golf champion purchased a $2.3 million mansion, which may hint at long-term plans for a happy future with his high school sweetheart.
