May 2024 · 1 minute read

At least Paulina Gretzky will know how to celebrate next year, should Dustin Johnson win another US Open.

While watching her fiancé on the green at Shinnecock Hills, the Great One’s daughter “erupted in euphorics” with two female friends, according to NJ.com, after the 33-year-old golfer made a birdie putt on the 72nd hole.

“Did Dustin just win?” one of the women allegedly asked, before Brooks Koepka tapped in a bogey to secure back-to-back US Open titles. “Brooks just won,” soon followed from the group.

Johnson finished two strokes behind Koepka. Those two victories followed Johnson’s 2016 triumph at Oakmont. Johnson was four strokes clear of the field heading into the weekend before a 77 in Saturday’s brutal conditions left him in a tie for the lead.

Johnson was in the mix most of the day Sunday, amid a tightly bunched leaderboard, but succumbed to three bogeys on the back nine as Koepka held on for history.

As for Gretzky, 29, she praised Johnson ahead of the Long Island tournament on Instagram.

“Always so proud of you..congrats baby 🏆❤,” she gushed.
