Who Is Davis Thompson's Wife? Meet Holly Grace Robinson
Thompson and Robinson got married in 2023 after their plans to tie the knot at Christmas changed - here's what we know about her
Davis Thompson has enjoyed a dream past few years. In 2021, he turned professional and joined the Korn Ferry Tour. The following year, the former University of Georgia Bulldog earned a first Korn Ferry Tour victory and proposed to his girlfriend Holly Grace Robinson.
In 2023, the pair got married while Thompson also moved up to a then-career-high 59th in the world. He almost secured his maiden PGA Tour triumph at the American Express, too, but fell just short as Jon Rahm took the title.
Turning into 2024, the Atlanta, Georgia-born golfer stood in the winner's circle for the first time at the John Deere Classic while his loving wife watched on.
And speaking about Robinson in his winner's press conference, Thompson said: "Yeah, she means everything to me. We knew each other in high school; started dating in college. So I've known her forever.
"She's my best friend and I'm just -- I felt a lot more comfortable this year having her on the road with me and traveling together. Last year, it kind of got lonely just because we weren't married yet until May. Even then I felt like I was still kind of traveling alone. It's been awesome to have her by my side. Wouldn't want anybody else."

Born on April 4, 1998 - 14 months earlier than Thompson - Holly Grace Robinson was raised by parents Eric and Stacy Robinson in Auburn. She has two sisters, Hayley Williams and Hayden DeGrange, who are both older.
Robinson enjoyed an internship with Ivory & White Bridal Boutique and Behind the Glass, an Auburn women's clothing business before graduating from Auburn University with a bachelor's degree in apparel merchandising, design, and production management in April 2021. Thompson graduated from the University of Georgia with a degree in sports management at around the same time.

Thompson and Robinson knew each other in high school but began dating in college before making it official in September 2020. Robinson remarked in the Instagram post in which she first revealed her boyfriend on social media that "it’s the 3 hour drive instead of the 5 hour drive for me" to see Thompson.
They became engaged at Botanic in Alabama in late November 2022 and revealed plans to tie the knot the following Christmas (December 16, 2023) but ended up officially marrying in Auburn on May 27, 2023 so that Robinson's mother - who was battling cancer - could be a part of the day. The ceremony was reportedly in front of just close friends and relatives, and Stacy Robinson later passed away on July 8, 2023.

In an Instagram post regarding the subject while on their honeymoon, the pro golfer said: "Honeymoonin’ with HG. Crazy to think that we were supposed to get married today. God stepped in though and provided another plan that was far better than what we had originally planned.
"I pray that if you’re reading this you find hope in Christ this season as we celebrate not only the birth of our Savior but His saving Grace that’s given to those who repent and put their faith in Him.”

It is unclear what Robinson does for work or if she is simply able to support her husband as he aims to improve on an impressive start to life as a PGA Tour pro.
