A close contender for the $7.3 million prize purse at the Wyndham Championship, Russell Henley, is currently in the 3rd position as Round 3 came to an end on Saturday. Eyeing his fourth PGA Tour win, he will look to capitalize on his amazing performance as he eyes the title and a comfortable entry into the FedEx Cup qualifiers. His early victories on the PGA Tour came in the 2013 Sony Open, 2014 Honda Classic, 2017 Shell Houston Open, and the 2022 World Wide Technology Championship.

The American pro golfer will be looking to carry forward his current momentum to the qualifiers as he aims for a top finish at the tournament. However, such a performance would not be possible on the field unless there are special people in his life off the course. Everyone needs someone close to them for support and comfort as they take the amazing journey of life. And, this PGA star owes much of his success to the boundless love and support that he has received from his loved ones, especially his long-time partner and wife who has stood by his side for close to a decade now.
