PGA Tour star Keith Mitchell holds a special spot in his fans’ hearts, who affectionately refer to him as ‘Cashmere Keith.’ While his fans’ admiration for him is well known, what remains less talked about is who Mitchell admires. The woman who holds that special place in his heart is Claire Watson, whom the golfer married over 2 years ago.
As a public figure, it’s undeniable that Mitchell remains a part of the spotlight, now and then. However, unlike her husband, Claire prefers living a very private life, having a private Instagram account with just 3.5k followers. Her choice to stay away from public attention is fairly contrasting to Mitchell’s high-profile career. Despite their different life choices, however, the couple maintains a remarkable balance in their professional and personal life!

Since Mitchell keeps his personal life affairs away from media attention, it’s unclear how he met his wife Claire. However, what we know is that despite maintaining privacy in their relationship, the couple does endorse an exquisite life. It has been almost three years since their marriage, and it still feels like today, at least to those who got to attend the private yet lavish wedding of the golfer.
Mr. and Mrs. Mitchell tied the knot on 10 January 2022 at the Pebble Beach Golf Links, which every golf fan knows is one of the most gorgeous courses in America. Their California wedding, much like their private life currently was an intimate affair with only close friends and family. But of course, a few big names from the golf world made it there too. The likes of Kevin Kisner, Hudson Swafford, Brian Harman, and Harris English were there showering the couple with their love and blessings.

For their honeymoon, the then-newlywed couple headed to Hawaii. Notably, that same week, Mitchell participated in the Hawaii Sony Open. The newly married PGA Tour star seemed extra focused and motivated, for he finished at an impressive T7. Reportedly, around the time of Mitchell’s wedding, the Saudi-funded LIV Golf League approached the golfer. Notably, he refused.
Though the couple has kept their marriage relatively private, there’s no doubt that their relationship adds a meaningful dimension to Mitchell’s life beyond the golf course. So what more do we know about the couple?
