Sam Burns' strong run at the 2026 US Open has brought him close to winning the tour. His wife, Caroline Burns, has remained a familiar presence during key moments of the PGA Tour star's career.
Caroline, who grew up in Shreveport, Louisiana, studied marketing at Louisiana State University, where Sam also played college golf before turning professional in 2017. She later earned a master's degree in counseling from Westminster Theological Seminary in 2020.
The couple met as children at church when they were about five years old and have been friends and eventually a couple since then. They married on December 14, 2019, and welcomed their son, Bear, in April 2024.
Since then, the family has participated in events together, such as the Masters Par 3 Contest in 2025 and 2026. Reports published during the 2026 season also said Sam and Caroline are expecting their second child in July 2026.
