Will Zalatoris gets married to Caitlin Sellers, expected to return to action at Tournament of Champions
Will Zalatoris has been nursing a bad back since the FedEx Cup playoffs, but he found an important way to fill his schedule between starts — by tying the knot.
The former Wake Forest star and 2014 U.S. Junior Amateur champion announced his engagement to girlfriend Caitlin Sellers, also a Demon Deacon, with a series of pictures on Instagram back in April of 2021. The post included the caption, “Best day of my life. I love you.”
On Tuesday, also via Instagram, Zalatoris posted a photo of the happy couple with the caption, “Can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with my best friend. I love you.”
Zalatoris entered August’s BMW Championship in the advantageous No. 1 spot in the FedEx Cup standings after capturing his first PGA Tour win at the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis.
But during the third round at Wilmington Country Club in Wilmington, Delaware, Zalatoris suffered a back injury on the third hole. Zalatoris and his playing partner, Emiliano Grillo, let the group of Sam Burns and Adam Hadwin through as they waited for the PGA Tour physio.
After a short visit and numerous stretches, Zalatoris decided to withdraw from the event.
However, the Sentry Tournament of Champions recently announced that Zalatoris is expected in the field for the event in early January.
Will Zalatoris walks back to the crowd with his arm around his fiancé after winning his first PGA tournament during the last day of the FedEx St. Jude Championship at TPC Southwind in Memphis, Tenn., Sunday, Aug. 14, 2022.
