Bringing you all the happy life news, engagements, marriages, pregnancies and births from tour players around the world
The off season on any of the professional golf tours normally signifies a rush of announcements. We kept an eye on our social media feeds over the last month, so that we can share with you all the happy off course news from the pros.
Matilda Castren engaged
The 2021 Solheim Cup rookie Matilda Castren got engaged in Portugal. The 28-year-old who became the first Finnish player to win on the LPGA tour on her 15th start in 2021, announced the happy news via her Instagram on the 15th December.
Sharing the following with her 23.3 thousand followers:
Castren has been dating American Daniel Moreno since the summer of 2018.
A baby boy for Lindsey Weaver-Wright
At the beginning of October LPGA Tour player Lindsey Weaver-Wright signed off for maternity leave in style when she holed out for eagle from 137 yards on the 18th at her home course in Texas in the Ascendant LPGA benefitting Volunteers of America.
Fast forward to the week before Christmas and the American took to her Instagram to announce the safe arrival of her son Crew Callan Wright on 17th December with husband Zach Wright, a former PGA and Korn Ferry Tour player.
Thirty year old Weaver Wright plans to return to the LPGA Tour in March.
A year to celebrate for Corpuz
The 2023 U.S. Women's Open Champion Allisen Corpuz also announced her engagement, just before New Year.
Corpuz and American Daniel Eckstrom, who both attended the University of South Carolina, shared the happy news on Instagram:

Wedding belles
The end of the year was marked by a big celebration for a number of LET stars as they witnessed the marriage of Hannah Burke and Donna McGuigan.
Gabriella Cowley, Felicity Johnson, Becky Brewerton and Meghan MacLaren were amongst the guests celebrating the nuptials of LET veteran (hope she doesn't mind me calling her that) Burke on the 29th December.
The 35-year-old married McGuigan surrounded by friends and family in one of the beautiful Barns at The Farmhouse at Redcoats in Hitchin, Hertfordshire.
Congratulations to the new Mrs and Mrs McGuigan-Burke 💗
