‘Love you, Mom!’ Pro golfers pay tribute to moms, wives on Mother’s Day

For many of the best golfers in the world, it was their mothers who took them to their first golf lesson, bought them their first set of golf clubs, and hugged them first when they won their first tournament. Pro golfers were some of the many who have taken to social media on Sunday to pay tribute to their moms on Mother’s Day. Here’s some of the best we saw:

Happy Mother’s Day to my mother and all mothers out there enjoy it because this is your day.

Happy Mother’s Day Mom!! They say you can’t pick your parents, but even if I could, I couldn’t have asked for a better Mother. You have sacrificed so much for me over the years and I am… https://t.co/qE0DG5wSzc

Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms around the world, especially the one who is at the center of my world—Barbara Nicklaus. Mom to 5, grandmother (Mimi) to 22, and second Mom to countless kids and even a few big kids on the @PGATOUR 😁
