PGA Championship 2026: Awesome fan video shows Aaron Rai’s wife’s reaction to his 68-foot bomb
This alternate angle from the 17th hole on Sunday shows what Rai's putt meant to his better half.
Aaron Rai is a major champion. Say that three times in a row, and you still might not believe it, but on Sunday the two glove-wearing, iron cover-rocking Englishman bested a stacked leaderboard and a brutal Aronimink set up to etch his name on the Wanamaker trophy. Out of Rai’s unlikely win came the usual avalanche of anecdotes and highlights, but perhaps none more awwww-inspiring than this fan video which, through sheer luck, captured Rai’s wife’s reaction to her husband’s 68-foot bomb on the 17th hole.

” There’s another with a salmon hoodie tied around his waist dancing like he just won the lottery (if he had a few bucks on Rai, he might have). But amongst the sea of middle aged white guys in pastel polos and khakis was Rai’s wife, Gaurika Bishnoi, who raised both of her arms to the sky in celebration as the putt fell. Funniest of all was the fact that no one around her had any idea who she was or that she could wipe the floors with them on the course.
That anonymity won’t last long now that her husband is a major champion, so let's savor this footage of her mixing it up with the gallery while we can. RELATED: Aaron Rai's reason for having iron covers will make you feel bad about making fun of iron covers
