Who is Jim Furyk's wife Tabitha and how did they meet?
The 2003 US Open champion met his wife at the 1995 Memorial Tournament, hosted by Jack Nicklaus.
Recalling how he came into her life, Furyk said: "I walked off the green [after my round] and was goofing around with some kids and Tabitha caught my eye, so I said hello to her.
"I was a little shy about going up and talking to her.
"Then Ray (Tabitha’s Boss) came up to interview me. The whole while he was interviewing me I kind of positioned myself so that I could keep checking her out.
