Aaron Rai wife Gaurika Bishnoi embrace during the final round of the PGA Championship.<\/p>\n
Aaron Rai picked up the Wanamaker trophy on Sunday at Aronimink in style<\/a>. He was not even in the field at the Truist Championship. The 31-year-old golfer teed off at the Myrtle Beach Classic. From there to a 3-stroke lead to the PGA Championship<\/a> win looks like a fairytale.<\/p>\n Rai has credited his wife, Gaurika Bishnoi, and his parents for the victory. After picking up the silverware, he shared an in-depth insight into their lives that made headlines. Four days later, on Pat McAfee\u2019s show, he further shared details about Bishnoi.<\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s been around the game a very long time,\u201d Rai said. \u201cBut I think she has probably a more balanced perspective on life than I do. I think I\u2019m definitely more tilted towards golf.\u201d<\/p>\n Both Rai and Bishnoi are professional golfers. She is a member of the Ladies European Tour. Naturally, McAfee asked the question how does golf not take over their lives even away from the course. And the credit for that, too, goes to Bishnoi.<\/p>\n \u201cI think that balance that she has and consistently reminds me of helps golf not dominate our lives and it definitely doesn\u2019t dominate our conversations,\u201d he added. \u201cShe\u2019s great in bringing that balance away from the course.\u201d<\/p>\n Aaron Rai Reveals How He Celebrated With Wife Gaurika After PGA Championship Win GettyAaron Rai and wife Gaurika Bishnoi look on during the final round of the PGA Championship.<\/p>\n The PGA Championship offered a purse of $3.69 million, and it was clear that Rai would spend some of it on celebrations. A large chunk, however, was lost to taxes<\/a>.<\/p>\n After accounting for federal and Pennsylvania state income taxes, along with a customary 10% caddie payout, Rai could see more than $1.7 million deducted from his record-setting prize money, leaving him with substantially less than the headline payout.<\/p>\n But that did not affect the celebrations.<\/p>\n \u201cThere were a lot of commitments that followed after finishing on the 18th,\u201d Rai revealed. \u201cWe had a really nice dinner at the golf course, which was great and a mini celebration there with some of the PGA guys, my wife and my caddie.\u201d<\/p>\n Rai\u2019s wife, Gaurika, jokingly said that he would probably celebrate with Chipotle and she was right. Rai\u2019s celebrations also included that.<\/p>\n \u201cWe did make it to Chipotle on Monday, the following day, so I really enjoyed that one,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n The couple flew to Jacksonville a few days ago and is planning a family get-together this weekend. Many others from his golf team will also be there.<\/p>\n Aaron Rai Reveals His Favourite Soccer Team<\/p>\n Rai is from England, so it was no surprise that he also had a favorite soccer club alongside the Philadelphia Eagles<\/a>, the NFL team he publicly committed to following after lifting the trophy.<\/p>\n He is a passionate supporter of Manchester United. Surprisingly, Wolverhampton Wanderers are not his first choice despite him growing up in Wolverhampton.<\/p>\n Wolves currently sit at the bottom of the table and are set to be relegated from the Premier League to the Championship after the season.<\/p>\n Aaron Rai Drops Emotional Message on Wife Gaurika<\/p>\n Rai could not stop thanking his wife.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s beautiful. I\u2019m so lucky,\u201d he said. \u201cSometimes I still can\u2019t quite get my head around how lucky I am to have found a woman like her.\u201d<\/p>\n The couple got married in July last year during an elegant traditional ceremony at Hedsor House in Buckinghamshire, England. They also spend time in Jacksonville, Rai\u2019s primary residence since 2023.<\/p>\n Like Rai, Gaurika travels frequently for her golfing career. Even so, they have managed to maintain a healthy balance.<\/p>\n \u201cWe practice a lot together back in Jacksonville, which is where we live. So there\u2019s just a really nice blend of life and golf that goes into our partnership,\u201d Rai revealed.<\/p>\n \n\t\t\tDibyendu Mondal<\/a> Dibyendu Mondal is a contributor for Heavy Sports with special focus on golf, football, basketball and soccer.
