I love my wife So much: Davis Thompson

Davis Thompson Wins Maiden PGA Tour Title with Emotional Victory at John Deere Classic

Davis Thompson clinched his first PGA Tour title at the John Deere Classic, delivering a record-breaking performance at TPC Deere Run. Amid the celebratory cheers, it was his heartfelt embrace with his wife, Holly Grace Robinson Thompson, that stood out as the defining moment of his triumph.

Thompson, 25, shot a superb 64 in the final round to secure a four-shot victory, finishing with a record score of 28-under par. This surpassed the previous tournament record of 27-under, set by Michael Kim in 2018. But beyond the statistics and accolades, it was the emotional connection with his wife that truly marked this victory.

As Thompson began the final round with a two-shot lead, his thoughts often turned to Holly Grace, who has been his unwavering supporter throughout his journey. He quickly widened his lead with five birdies in his first six holes, but it was the reassurance and love from his wife that kept him grounded and focused.

After navigating the challenges of the course, including a crucial par save on the 8th and a decisive birdie on the 14th, Thompson’s mind remained on the moment he would share his victory with Holly Grace. Despite a bogey on the 12th hole, he regained his composure, knowing that she was there cheering him on.

Upon sinking the final putt, Thompson immediately sought out Holly Grace, sharing a tearful embrace on the 18th green. “I love my wife so much,” he told CBS’ Amanda Balionis with visible emotion. “She has been my rock throughout this journey. I just tried to stay present all day, and I felt a big sigh of relief when that last putt went in.”

Thompson’s victory, his first in 63 PGA Tour starts, came after several close calls, including three runner-up finishes and a top-10 finish at the US Open. Yet, it was the shared dreams and sacrifices with Holly Grace that made this moment even more special. His triumph secured him a place in the world’s top 40 and a spot in the upcoming 152nd Open Championship at Royal Troon.

Luke Clanton (a) and Michael Thorbjornsen, rising American stars, finished tied for second alongside CT Pan with scores of 24-under par. Despite their impressive performances, it was Thompson’s connection with his wife that captured the hearts of fans.

CT Pan, who also qualified for The Open due to his higher OWGR position, praised Thompson’s resilience and the evident support from his wife. Pan shared, “It’s incredible to see such a supportive partnership. It’s no wonder he’s achieved this milestone.”

As Thompson prepares for The Open, his thoughts remain with Holly Grace. The $1.44 million prize, the accolades, and the comparisons to World No.1 Scottie Scheffler from CBS analyst Ian Baker-Finch are all significant, but for Thompson, sharing this victory with his wife is the ultimate reward.

Aaron Rai, who started the final round two shots behind Thompson, finished tied for seventh on 21-under par. Jordan Spieth, a two-time John Deere Classic winner, finished outside the top 20 after a challenging final round.

As Davis Thompson looks ahead to his next challenge, it’s clear that his journey will continue to be guided by the support and love of his wife, Holly Grace, making each victory all the more meaningful.
