Jimmy Walker won the PGA Championship in a weather-delayed affair to capture his first major. Naturally the Oklahoman was able to celebrate the milestone victory with his family, which includes wife Erin and their two sons.
And for Jimmy, he celebrated with a nice pat on his wife’s behind:
Jimmy, 37, met Erin in 2004 when she volunteered at a Nationwide tour event. His wife actually is a nationally-ranked competitor too, though she is accomplished in equestrian.

She can also golf too:

Long before he started having success on the PGA Tour, Walker started off on the Nationwide tour and worked his way up. Things have really clicked for him in the past few years.
In 2014 he scored top-10 finishes in three majors. He has won three PGA Tour events in the last three seasons. And now he has won his first major, becoming the third golfer in the last 20 years to win a PGA Championship in wire-to-wire fashion.
