Wayne Gretzky, the hockey legend often referred to merely as “The Great One,” met Dustin Johnson in 2012 at a golf skills event for charity. Their friendship grew much closer when Johnson began dating and then became engaged to Gretzky’s daughter, Paulina. They’ve been frequent partners in the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am and playing companions at Sherwood Country Club in California.
Make no mistake, however, that it’s a friendship. Gretzky explained to Golfweek he’s no guru – in golf or life – when it comes to Johnson.
Still, both men have known success at the highest levels of their respective sports, and Gretzky has had perspective to offer Johnson throughout the years.
Take a look at the Gretzky-Johnson partnership at Pebble Beach through the years.
