Video of Aaron Rai's Wife Goes Viral After PGA Championship
Before the PGA Championship from Aronimink Golf Club outside of Philadelphia teed off on Thursday morning, not many would have placed a wager on Aaron Rai.
Not because he's not a very good player, but this course seemed to fit a golfer who can drive the ball a country mile while also bringing it home on the green. Rai is neither a bomber or an excellent putter, but he managed to defeat the best golfers in the world anyway.
On Sunday afternoon he carded a five-under, 65 to win his first major title by three shots over Jon Rahm.
Aaron Rai's Wife Goes Viral
Not long after Rai's victory, a video of his wife from the 2025 Masters tournament resurfaced and started going viral on social media once again.
The couple took part in the Par 3 contest at the Masters where Gaurika Bishnoi got it closer to the pin than her husband.

Bishnoi, who like Rai is of Indian descent, plays on the Ladies European Tour. The 27-year-old has yet to win on that tour, but she has eight career wins in India's Hero Women's Pro Golf Tour.
Rai and Bishnoi teamed up at the Par 3 contest once again this year when Rai won the contest before finishing in a tie for 48th place at the Masters.
After winning the DP World Tour's Abu Dhabi HSBC Championship in November, Rai raved about his life partner.
"It's hard for me to really sum up how much of an effect she's had on me as a person, and also that actually feeds into my golf," Rai said, per The Mirror.
"This year has been truly special with us getting married, caddying for her, being with her, getting married, practicing and playing together. It's just a peaceful thing to be able to share different parts of our lives with one another and being with each other every step of the way. Yeah, very special."
Rai had never finished in the top 10 of a major before Sunday's three-shot win.
