Cowboy hats and men’s work boots? Did you ever imagine a SoCal boy like Dustin Johnson having a fit check in pure Texan style? Well, it has happened. LIV Golf Houston might be a thing of the past now, but what the Johnson family wore in Houston style to celebrate a special day is the new trending hot topic.

Dustin Johnson, the captain of 4Aces GC, performed remarkably in LIV Golf Houston as he finished at T13. However, Johnson and his family had their Texas theme going on afterward as well for Johnson’s birthday celebration. The photos they dropped of Johnson’s 40th birthday bash were jaw-dropping.

Johnson’s wife, Paulina Gretzky, shared photos and a video of her family from the golfer’s 40th birthday celebration. It was a cowboy-themed party where no one was out of style. In a reel that she shared, the family was seen standing out in their stellar outfits and enjoying private family dining, several live music sessions, trips to the pubs, playing games with friends, enjoying a night sky with fireworks, and of course, a gigantic cake.

Gretzky wrote in the caption of her reels, “locals ♫♪.” She then photo-dumped more memories while they rode in a red vintage car. She chose to write the first line of John Denver’s timeless classic, “Country Roads, Take Me Home.

 

When the golf community witnessed how fun their Texan-styled birthday bash had been, they came in numbers to show their appreciation for such a change from their usual lifestyle. Want to know how the community is taking this family fit check?

The golf community is lovin’ the cowboy looks

One of the fans wrote, “I like Dustin because he has that ‘I don’t give a sh*t attitude but is a good dude’.” Dustin Johnson got much applause for being hilarious when he let out his calm yet fun vibe through his interaction with Bryson DeChambeau. After DeChambeau had lost in a putting bet to a fan, he had to give up on his socks. When the 2024 US Open champion revealed it to Johnson, he kept his calm persona on. And shockingly, the community had asked if DeChambeau had signed it or not. His attitude off-court has always made him quite a fan favorite for his commendable personality.

“Living the LIV dream,” said another fan. LIV Golf has been receiving backlash regarding both its format and humongous prize. With money rolling in, Johnson has already earned nearly $20 million in only two years, according to Golf Week, compared to his all-time career earnings of $75 million on the PGA Tour.

Another fan commented, “The coolest family in the USA.” Johnson married the daughter of the Canadian ice hockey player, Wayne Gretzky. With Paulina Gretzky, Johnson has two of his incredible sons, River and Tatum. Johnson revealed on several occasions that it is primarily for his children that he wishes to become a better person whom they can look up to. Dressing both the kids in white shirts, denim, and boots, the Johnsons certainly proved how cool they were.

Looking at the photos, another fan quoted, “I got a star on my car and one on my chest, a gun on my hip, and the right to arrest. I’m the guy who’s the boss on this highway. So watch out what you’re doin’ when you’re driving’ my way.” The lines belong to Junior Brown’s 1995 song, Highway Patrol. Keeping the theme of cowboys and roads intact, the fan related how the Johnson family was reflecting a real-life presentation of this country song.

As Dustin Johnson’s wife, Paulina, has wanted, another fan reflected the same. The fan said, “Y’all look like you should be in Texas.” With the country songs, their outfit, and their bold personality, the family accepted and adapted to the Texas style so well that fans suggested they blend in instantly.
