“They Are My Joy”: Jordan Spieth Shares Beautiful Family Moments with Annie and Their Daughter
“They Are My Joy”: Jordan Spieth Shares Beautiful Family Moments with Annie and Their Daughter
In the high-stakes world of professional golf, where every putt can be the difference between a trophy and a heartbreak, three-time Major champion Jordan Spieth has found a secret weapon for staying grounded: his family.
While the 2026 season has seen Jordan battling it out on the leaderboards at events like the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am, his most significant “wins” are happening far away from the fairways of the PGA Tour. Recently, Jordan opened up about his life as a father of three, sharing heartwarming details about his bond with his wife, Annie Verret, and their growing “Spieth Foursome”—which has officially become a fivesome!
A Growing “Spieth Squad”
For years, fans have cheered for Jordan and Annie, high school sweethearts who married in 2018. But lately, the spotlight has shifted to their children. As of early 2026, the couple is busier than ever with:
-
Sammy (4): Their eldest son, who famously stole the show in oversized headphones at the Presidents Cup.
-
Sophie (2): The couple’s first daughter, born in September 2023, who turned Jordan into a proud “Girl Dad.”
-
Sully (7 months): The newest addition to the team, a son born in July 2025 just before the Open Championship.
“People ask me how I balance the travel and the pressure,” Jordan shared in a recent interview. “And the truth is, I don’t. I just lean into the chaos. Annie is the rock, and the kids? They are my joy. Seeing Sophie run onto the green or hearing Sammy talk about ‘Daddy’s golf’—that’s what keeps me focused when the game gets tough.”
Lessons from the Next Generation
Jordan has often spoken about how fatherhood has changed his perspective on the game. Known for his intense self-talk and “gritty” playstyle, the 32-year-old says having Sophie and her brothers has helped him leave the bad rounds behind.
“Sophie doesn’t care if I shot a 65 or a 75,” Jordan laughed. “She just wants to play. Having that perspective at home makes the 18th hole feel a lot less like the end of the world.”
The Heart of the Foundation
The Spieth family’s bond extends beyond their home in Dallas. Through the Jordan Spieth Family Foundation, Jordan and Annie have made it their mission to help other families. Inspired by Jordan’s sister, Ellie, who was born with special needs, the foundation focuses on four key pillars:
-
Special Needs Youth
-
Junior Golf
-
Military Support
-
Pediatric Cancer
With Annie leading the charge behind the scenes, the foundation has already contributed over $10 million to charitable partners. For the Spieths, success isn’t just about the number of green jackets in the closet; it’s about the impact they leave on the community.
What’s Next for the Spieths?
As we look toward the 2026 Masters in April, expect to see the “Spieth Squad” out in full force. Whether it’s Sammy and Sophie acting as honorary caddies during the Par 3 Contest or baby Sully making his Augusta debut, one thing is certain: Jordan Spieth is playing for more than just a leaderboard spot these days.
He’s playing for the family that calls him “Dad.”
