The golfer is definitely in the spotlight, but he has a huge support system about whom there isn’t much known. Yes, we are talking about his wife, Teil Henley. Do you remember the cutest moment at the API where, after victory, Henley was stormed by small feet running towards him to celebrate? After his fifth PGA Tour victory, he was seen hugging his family, including his wife and three kids.

Teil Henley professional life explored
The University of Georgia alum married an Auburn University artist, who graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Art. She graduated in 2010 and has now excelled in the field of contemporary art. Duncan is an artist based out of her studio in Columbus. She got inspired by light, movement, pattern, and color combination. With her expertise in the field, she wishes to infuse these elements and create unique compositions and abstracts.
“No matter the subject, I strive to portray a balance of realism combined with loose abstraction, causing one to compliment the other,” Duncan said about her art style. Now, with her decade of experience, she has even spread into another industry, i.e., interior design. The Auburn Alum started her new business arm in March 2024, Teil Textile and Wallpaper, offering design ideas for home from wallpapers and coverings.
