Who Is Golfer Justin Thomas’ Wife Jillian Wisniewski?
Golfer Justin Thomas turned professional back in 2013. The very next year, he won his first professional event at the 2014 Nationwide Children’s Hospital Championship. In 2015, he won the CIMB Classic by a single stroke over Adam Scott. Thomas defended his title in 2016 and won the PGA Championship in 2017 by two shots. He won his second major in 2022.
His achievements throughout his career have been well-documented, but not a ton is known about his life away from the course.
Here’s more about Thomas and his wife, Jillian Wisniewski.
How Thomas and Wisniewski met, and when they got married
Thomas and Wisniewski have known each other since college. They met through mutual friends while he was playing collegiate golf at the University of Alabama and she was a journalism student at the University of Kentucky.
The athlete mentioned they were dating in 2017 when he won his first PGA championship telling reporters during a press conference: “My girlfriend was supposed to fly out at about 7, and I was like, ‘You need to change your flight to later because I don’t want you to miss this and I feel like I’m going to get it done.'”
Wisniewski did change her plans and therefore got to see her man take home the trophy.
After a few years of dating, Thomas proposed in 2021 and Wisniewski happily accepted. The athlete told People that asking her to marry him was a no-brainer as she has made him an all-around better person.
“We feel like we already [are married] because of how long we’ve been together and she’s such a, just a great influence on me,” he shared with the publication. “I mean, she truly makes me a better person and every time being around her brings out a better side of me.”
One year after getting engaged, the pair said “I do” during a private ceremony in Franklin, Tennessee. Fellow golfing pro Jordan Spieth served as Thomas’ best man.
What Wisniewski does for a living
Wisniewski graduated from the University of Kentucky with a bachelor’s degree in journalism.
She currently works for the advertising agency McGarryBowen in Chicago, per her LinkedIn, splitting her time between the Windy City and Jupiter, Florida, where she and Thomas own a home.
How many children they have
Thomas and Wisniewski have one child together.
They announced the birth of their daughter, Molly, via Instagram, writing: “Our little girl is here! Molly Grace Thomas arrived to us 11/18/24, and we couldn’t be more in love. Both momma (who is a superhero!) and Molly are healthy and doing well! A massive thank you to [Jupiter Medical Center] and their entire staff for such great care the last few days. They made the recovery for Jill and Molly as smooth as possible.”
Since welcoming their little one, Thomas has shared a few more pics and updates about Molly with fans on social media. And following his victory at the RBC Heritage tournament in April 2025, the athlete gave his wife and daughter a shoutout.
“I got a great wife, great team, and now a great daughter … who’s got her eyeballs showing right now,” he said as Molly poked her head out of her baby carrier.
