  • Patrick Reed won the Masters on Sunday, cementing his rise to the top of the golf world.

  • Reed hasn't commented much on his family, but the scarce details that are public give a glimpse into Reed's life.


Patrick Reed won the 2018 Masters tournament in Augusta, Georgia on Sunday, holding off a late charge from a fan favorites Jordan Spieth and Rickie Fowler to earn himself the coveted green jacket and a place in golf's history books.

Reed, 27, has had a turbulent ride in the public spotlight, including a controversial college career and a public feud with his parents dating back to 2012. The golfer's complicated past contributed to his reputation as one of golf's biggest villains.

Now with a Masters victory on his résumé, more details about Reed's relationships are coming to light, from his wife Justine, who worked as his caddy for two years, to his parents, who still support their son on social media despite not having spoken in years.
