Presidents Cup 2026: Dateless Jackson Koivun poses for embarassing (but hilarious) photo with U.S. team WAGs

It’s been a big year for Jackson Koivun: a PGA Tour win in his third pro start, the last spot in the FedEx Cup Playoffs and a locked-in tee time at the next Masters. And yet, he still has to go through the young-man hazing that is a staple at events like the Presidents Cup.
We already know he had to serenade his fellow Americans with “Heartless” by Kanye West, but Koivun also posed for the time-honored bachelor photo surrounded by the rest of the team's wives and girlfriends.
There’s some blushing and the customary hands-over-the-face pose, but Koivun is a 21-year-old phenom, traveling the world playing golf. We think he’ll be OK.

And yes, Koivun is now part of a very prestigious lineage of pros without a date, surrounded by his teammates’ significant others. There was Rickie Fowler in 2016 at the Hazeltine National Ryder Cup, looking sheepish as his fellow Americans went in for their respective kisses.

Plus, we can’t forget Viktor Hovland recreating Fowler’s photo after the Europeans’ 2023 Ryder Cup victory at Marco Simone.

Fowler is now married to track-and-field star Allison Stokke, and the couple has two kids together. And Hovland recently hard-launched his girlfriend, Tuva Dahl Jensen, at the Masters Par-3 Contest. So, we’re thinking things will work out just fine for Koivun.
But first, he has a Presidents Cup to focus on. Then … the dreaded dating apps.
