“She Hits It Pretty Solid”: Wayne Gretzky’s Daughter Surprised LIV Golf Star Dustin Johnson With a Wonderful Skill in 2017

Unlike the legendary Wayne Gretzky, his daughter Paulina is not a sporting legend. Yet, she still seems to have her father’s sporting genes. Since her childhood, sporting heroes have surrounded the actress. First was her loving father Gretzky, and later her golfer husband Dustin Johnson.

Although Paulina might not enjoy playing either ice hockey or golf, Johnson once revealed a secret skill about his wife.

Does Paulina have similar arm strength as her father Wayne Gretzky?

Johnson and Paulina, the parent of two, got married earlier this year. However, the two have been dating since 2013 and have always been open about their relationship.

In 2017, when Golf.com named Johnson the Player of the Year, he did an exclusive interview with them. During the interview, while talking about his relationship with his then-fiance Paulina, the golfer revealed unknown sporting information about Gretzky‘s eldest daughter.

When the interviewer asked if Paulina played golf with him, Johnson said, “She definitely doesn’t practice. Even if we go play, I’m like, ‘Do you want hot a few balls before we go up?’ Nope, she just wants to go ahead. But she actually hits it pretty solid, hits it well.”

However, it was not surprising, as Paulina is an NHL legend’s daughter and has grown up watching her father. Johnson also added that Paulina had the capability of becoming a top golfer. He added, “If she would practice a little bit she could be pretty good.”

But instead of following in her father and husband’s step, Paulina found her muse in modeling and acting.

Paulina Gretzky’s acting journey

Like her mother, Janet Jones, Paulina stepped foot into the Hollywood industry. However, before joining the movie world, she had already gained some fame among the people. No, it was not because of her legendary father.

Paulina was known for her “hot” social media pictures, which led to her modeling career. Although the Gretzky child does not have a long acting career, she did play some significant roles. They featured Paulina in movies like the 2009 film Fame and she is most known for her role as ‘Bikini Girl Daisy’ in Grown Ups 2.
