Collin Morikawa has already established himself as one of the greatest golfers. While it has been his exceptional hard work that has paid off, he has also had unwavering support from his family. Take his wife, Katherine Morikawa, for instance. Despite her busy schedule as an athlete herself, she is often seen accompanying her husband to events, be it in the US or overseas. 

For Katherine Morikawa too, her husband has been the strongest bane of support. She recently completed her first marathon for St. Jude, which was 26.2 miles long. “Running the @nycmarathon was for more than myself. This was for the kids who hope for the opportunity to go out and follow their dreams,” she wrote after completing the run. Her post was welcomed with comments like “Amazing!!!’ and “Congrats!!! Amazing!!” by Max Homa and Morgan Pressel respectively.

It was all for a charity that helps children who are in need. Well, she has been training for this for a long time. Running through days and nights, across the bridge. And in all of the practice sessions, and her final marathon stint, it was Collin Morikawa who kept her going. A few hours ago, she took to her official Instagram account and shared an emotional message thanking him for always being the most supportive husband.

“Your constant encouragement kept me going and your belief in me helped me believe in myself. knowing you were out there cheering me on made all the difference. I love you more than words can say 🤍”, she wrote in the caption after posting a picture of the two of them kissing after the marathon ended.

The Morikawas are indeed a fun couple to be around. While this time it was a post of appreciation, sometimes they also have fun banter on the internet, which makes the fans laugh crazily. For example, when Collin Morikawa was to play at the Presidents Cup against the International Team, which had mostly Canadian players. His wife shared a post putting up a Canadian flag and showing support for the team. 

She was born in Vancouver, Canada, and she wanted to tease her husband and let him know that even if he loses, it will be a victory for her. While this left Collin Morikawa confused, he knew she would be sad if they lost.

The emotional message left the entire golf community in tears. Many PGA and LPGA Tour Pros liked the post and showered it with comments of admiration.

Will Zalatoris, Jessica Korda, and others cheer for the Morikawas

The PGA Tour WAG, Caitlin N Zalatoris, commented, “@willzalatoris couple goals!! Love this” tagging her husband. While Zalatoris, who has been a friend to Morikawa ever since they started playing on the Tour replied, “Way to go @katherine_morikawa!!! Fun watching you train on the road throughout the season. @collin_morikawa and I take rides between holes lol”.

While Brooks Koepka’s wife, Jena Sims, simply wrote, “This is everything”. On the other hand, LPGA Tour star Jessica Korda commented, “Amazing girl!!” 

Katherine Morikawa has always made sure she shows her pride in her husband’s achievements. In October 2023, Collin Morikawa needed a 27-month-long drought by winning the 2023 ZOZO Championship, after which he thanked his wife. She knew how important it was for him to win the event in Japan and had kissed him before he went to tee off on the eighteenth hole.

The both of them later posed with the trophy, and Katherine Morikawa shared how proud she was of the hard work he put in. Taking to this, a fan wrote, “You do the same for him. So nice you both support one another’s dreams. This is the foundation of a lasting relationship”.

From accompanying him at the Ryder Cup to him following her everywhere she went for her runs, the Morikawas have indeed appeared to have one of the strongest bonds. Katherine Morikawa even stood by him during his entire career slump, and they both came out victorious together. Taking to this, a fan congratulated her, writing, “You two are a beautiful and adorable couple. ❤️. Congratulations on your run. 🏃🏻‍♀️”.
