Wyndham Clark isn’t just making noise on the course at The Masters; he’s making headlines off it, too.
The 2023 U.S. Open champion officially hard launched his new relationship with Emily Tanner during Wednesday’s Par-3 Contest. Viktor Hovland also showed off his new girlfriend, Tuva Dahl Jensen, which had socials buzzing. Between a solid opening round and a viral debut with Tanner, Clark is having himself quite the week.
Here are five fast facts you should know about Clark’s “good luck charm.”
1. She’s the Founder of Over Social Agency
Tanner has built her own career in the business world.
She founded Over Social Agency in 2021, where she helps brands grow through influencer marketing and content strategy. Alongside her is Nancy Nguyen, who has a background in biochemistry and took an unexpected turn into the creative world.
Tanner has worked with high-profile brands such as Celcius, Revolve, and Manscaped, and has a social following of over 740k.
2. Tanner is Originally From Michigan
The 31-year-old was raised in Detroit, Michigan, growing up alongside her older sister, Leah. That Motor City upbringing gives her a very different background compared to the typical coastal influencer pipeline, and it’s part of what makes her story stand out.
Detroit is known for its grit, resilience, and strong sense of identity – qualities that tend to stick with you.
These days, though, Tanner has traded the Midwest for the West Coast, and is now reportedly based in Los Angeles.
She’s also a dog owner, with a goldendoodle named Coop frequently appearing on her social media.
3. She Has a Background in Public Health
She graduated from Michigan State University in 2017, where she majored in Public Health. During her time in school, Tanner gained hands-on experience in the healthcare field, working as a student volunteer at both Sparrow Health System and DMC Huron Valley-Sinai Hospital in 2014.
She also interned with the Florida Division of Emergency Management, adding another layer of real-world experience in public health and crisis response. It’s a background that shows she wasn’t always headed for the influencer and marketing world.
According to her LinkedIn page, by 2019, she had stepped into a more creative role as a creative director at NoSweat. That pivot ultimately set the stage for what she’s doing now.
4. She’s Been in the Modeling Game for Years
Back in November 2016, she was featured as Sports Illustrated’s Lovely Lady of the Day, a popular spotlight that helped boost rising names in the lifestyle and modeling space. It was an early sign that Tanner had both the look and presence to stand out.
Since then, she’s worked with several well-known bikini and lifestyle brands, including Frankies Bikinis, Private Party, and Ola Feroz Swimwear. Her work in that space helped lay the foundation for her later success in social media and influencer marketing.
5. She Was Previously Linked to an NFL Star
Before going public with Clark, Tanner had been linked to another pro athlete.
It is reported she previously dated Danny Amendola, a Super Bowl-winning wide receiver known for his time with the New England Patriots.
While that chapter is clearly in the past, it adds another layer to Tanner’s story. She’s not new to the spotlight or the world of high-profile athletes.
