While his PGA Tour credentials are well known, Canadian golfer Adam Hadwin has made headlines regularly due to bouts of hilarious slander with his wife, Jessica. The couple indulges in rib-tickling conversations on the internet, which has hooked fans on their social media profiles.

But more importantly, it looks like Hadwin’s wife has turned the tide in her husband’s dark period. The one-time PGA TOUR winner made the confession after his impressive performances at the ongoing Rocket Mortgage Classic.

The 35-year-old golfer, ranked 71st in the world, has been stuck on a winless streak for years. His last (and only) win on the PGA TOUR came in 2017, when he won the year’s Valspar Championship.

While Hadwin has gone through multiple swing coaches and mentors, he hasn’t been able to put a stop to his dry run. However, it looks like his dear wife, Jessica, has a simple solution to negate his on-field troubles.

As Hadwin revealed in an interaction on the sidelines of the Rocket Mortgage Classic, it was the effect of slow play that was consuming the golfer. “[She said], ‘You look uncomfortable out there; you look like you’re deciding too much, taking too long,’” Hadwin said of his wife’s assessment. “[She added], ‘It’s not just me. The fans in the crowd at LACC, apparently, were calling me out for it too.’”

It seems like those words of advice from his wife really helped the PGA Tour star. A resurgent Hadwin made heads turn with a series of incredible performances, including a round of 63 on Saturday. The Canadian sits second on the leaderboard ahead of Sunday’s final round.

And when Jessica shared the interview on Twitter and rightfully claimed to be doing her bit for “the battle against slow play in golf,” the fans couldn’t help but cheer. Here are some of the things they had to say:

Interestingly, Canada Day was celebrated yesterday across the border, which a user pointed out in the tweets.

Furthermore, many fans requested Jessica to continue doing her part in improving the sport.

Surprisingly, this isn’t the first time fans have sung praises for Hadwin’s wife. The witty lady has become a sensation on social media due to her quirky takes and sense of humor in belittling her poor husband!

Furthermore, she grabbed the limelight again after the golfer bounced his ceremonial first pitch at the Rogers Centre, home of the Toronto Blue Jays. While not overly critical this time, Mrs. Hadwin took it as an opportunity to make the most of their regular mockeries.
