Patrick Reed's career in golf has seen some big wins, including a Masters title. But behind every successful golfer, there's often a strong support system. For Reed, that person is his wife, Justine. She's been by his side since he turned pro in 2011. Justine, who was born Justine Karain, isn't just a golf wife. She has a background that's pretty impressive. She grew up loving sports, playing soccer, swimming, and even golf in high school. She's also got two college degrees and worked as a nurse before golf became her full-time gig. The connection between Patrick and Justine started through her younger sister, Kris. Kris and Patrick met when he was a freshman at the University of Georgia. They kept in touch, and eventually, Patrick and Justine started dating. They tied the knot in December 2012, just a year after Patrick turned pro.
Justine has been more than just a supportive wife. She's also been a caddie and a manager for Patrick. She even caddied for him during his first PGA Tour win at the 2013 Wyndham Championship. The couple has two kids together, a daughter named Windsor-Wells and a son named Barrett Benjamin. Justine's journey shows that life can take unexpected turns. She went from being a nurse to being deeply involved in the world of professional golf. Her story is a reminder that sometimes, our careers and passions can change in ways we never expected.
