How Super Star Golfer Dustin Johnson suffered injury from bedroom incident with his wife Paulina Gretzky

Dustin Johnson has been married to Paulina Gretzky for almost a year and a half, with the couple having been an item for more than a decade and welcomed two children together

Dustin Johnson hasn’t had the best of years compared to his lofty standards – and it could all stem from a certain bedroom incident with his wife. A win at LIV Golf Las Vegas back in February remains his sole highlight, with missed cuts at the Masters and the U.S. Open to eventually follow.

The 40-year-old is playing less golf now than when he was on the PGA Tour, something that has been cited as the reason for many LIV Golf’s stars’ struggles in the majors. But the upside for Johnson is that he gets to spend more time with his family – including wife Paulina Gretzky.

And it was ahead of one major, the LIV Golf icon gave his wife an unexpected shoutout during a press briefing at Oak Hill Country Club.

As he prepped for the 2023 US PGA, the ex-world No. 1 tackled queries about his less-than-stellar start on the renegade circuit. With only a pair of top-ten finishes in the first five LIV events, Johnson turned things around with a victory at LIV Golf Tulsa just before jetting to New York.

When pressed by a reporter on why it took him a while to hit his stride, Johnson disclosed: “I mean, I was ready at the start of the season. Going in, I was going out to play Saudi International, and I tweaked my back right before that.”

“So I didn’t hit balls for a few weeks until right before I went and played Mexico. It’s just taken me a while to get back, get the patterns right, and just get my body m justoving right. Developed some bad habits, and it’s just golf; things happen. Swinging it well, feeling good, got confidence. That’s always helpful coming into a major.”
