Emily Tanner has recently attracted attention in the golf world after professional golfer Wyndham Clark publicly embraced their relationship and credited her as his “good-luck charm.”
The couple made their relationship public during the 2026 Masters Tournament, where Tanner was seen supporting Clark throughout the event. Since then, Clark has enjoyed one of the most successful stretches of his career, including victories at the Byron Nelson PGA Tour event and the 2026 U.S. Open Championship.
Celebrating a Major Championship Victory
On Sunday, Wyndham Clark captured his second U.S. Open title, finishing at 4-under-par to win by one stroke over Sam Burns at Shinnecock Hills Golf Club in New York. Following the winning putt, Tanner joined Clark on the 18th green, where the couple celebrated the emotional victory with a hug and kiss.
The win marked Clark’s second U.S. Open championship, having previously won the tournament in 2023.
Michigan Native and Michigan State Graduate
Emily Tanner, 31, was born and raised in the Metro Detroit area of Michigan. She attended Michigan State University from 2013 to 2017, earning a bachelor’s degree in public health.
During her college years, Tanner gained healthcare experience through several positions. She worked as a nursing assistant and patient care assistant and also volunteered with Sparrow Health System in Lansing, Michigan.
From Public Health Student to Social Media Influencer
Although Tanner studied public health, her career took a different path after a photographer approached her during college and encouraged her to pursue modeling.
That opportunity led to a successful career in social media and influencer marketing. Tanner has since built a substantial online presence, attracting more than 730,000 followers on Instagram through lifestyle, fashion, beauty, and wellness content.
In a 2018 interview with Detroit television station WDIV, Tanner spoke about her unexpected career journey.
“My mom eats it up,” she said when discussing her parents’ reaction to her influencer career. “My dad, he is old-school.”
Entrepreneur and Businesswoman
Beyond social media, Tanner is also an entrepreneur. She co-founded a marketing agency specializing in influencer partnerships and brand campaigns, helping businesses connect with digital audiences.
Supporting Clark on Golf’s Biggest Stage
As Clark continues to add trophies to his resume, Tanner has become a familiar face alongside him at major golf events. Her presence throughout the 2026 season has drawn attention from fans, especially after Clark publicly referred to her as his “good-luck charm.”
With Clark’s recent major championship success and Tanner’s growing public profile, the couple has become one of the most talked-about pairs in professional golf.
