Today, eight years after Jeter retired from baseball, the legend is still famous for his calculated mind. But this time, it’s not pertaining to baseball. Concurrently, as revealed by Ian O’Connor in Jeter’s biography called The Captain: The Journey of Derek Jeter, the shortstop ran his then-girlfriends through a quiz if he thought there was potential for a long-term relationship.

Along the same lines, Jeter moves to talk about the potential chances of a relationship getting serious. And if there was an off-chance, he would quiz his girlfriends. According to Ian O’Connor, the quiz didn’t limit to Yankee-related questions. In fact, the questions were hypothetical in nature, “what-would-you-do-in-this-situation” questions to read a woman’s moral compass.
Jeter’s former teammate and friend Gerald Williams spoke about this screening process. He said, “It’s usually about how she would handle a certain situation. He’s trying to find out if she would lose her cool and rant and rave, or stay calm and keep.”
Which celebrities did Jeter date?
Before Derek Jeter and Hannah Davis started dating in 2012, the former Yankee shortstop supposedly dated multiple celebrities.
Along with teammate Alex Rodriguez, the two Yankees perpetually attached themselves to the entertainment industry romantically. While Jeter’s bachelorhood stretches very far, among the most popular celebrities are Minka Kelly, Mariah Carey, Joy Enriquez, Jessica Alba, Bridget Hall, Lara Data, Jordana Brewster, and many more. From these, people speak about his relationship with five-time Grammy Award winner, Mariah Carey, even today. Back in 2014, the Pinstripes captain was rumored to be in a relationship with Scarlett Johansson as well.
