Jenna Shaw & Mackenzie Hughes – Are They Married?

The couple tied the knot on 22 October 2016, after being together for a few years, ever since college.

The Family Nation states the Langtree Plantation as their wedding venue. This is located at Lake Norman.

With golfing events affecting their schedule quite a lot, they were only able to plan their honeymoon for later that year, because Mackenzie first attended the PGA Tour’s fall events.

It was probably a good thing he didn’t skip those events because he had a major win during that time that meant prize money of $1 million. We’re sure that made their Thailand honeymoon even more enjoyable!

How Did They Meet?

Jenna met Mackenzie at the university where both were students, Kent State University. At the time of meeting both were still busy with their undergraduate studies.

It wasn’t necessarily ‘love at first sight’. As Current Affairs reports, they first became friends and over time that friendship resulted in a relationship. They only started dating after college.

Where Do They Live?

Mackenzie and Jenna live in Charlotte, North Carolina. They chose this as their hometown in 2012 after Jenna got a job in the area. Mackenzie decided to join her there permanently because he needed a place where the climate offers enough warm weather during winter months for him to still be able to practice. Luckily, Charlotte offered all the characteristics the couple required.

Do They Have Kids?

The couple has three kids. As reported by theplayersaga.com, they first became parents in October 2017 when Kenton was born and then Cohen joined the family in 2020. Their first girl was born on 12 December 2022 and she’s called Ellie, as confirmed by Mackenzie’s social media posts.

Based on the fact that Mackenzie calls himself a PGA Tour-level diaper changer, it seems he’s a hands-on father, giving Jenna the support she requires.

Does She Appear on Tour with Adam?

Jenna is one of the golf WAGs you’ll see on a course from time to time. For example, shortly after their wedding she was by her husband’s side when he won the RSM Classic, as noted by golfmonthly.com. She managed to do this by leaving her job, because the couple felt it was important for them to be together even when Mackenzie is on tour.

These days the entire family tours with Mackenzie in order to spend as much time together as possible. Luckily, as mentioned in a Southpark magazine article, the PGA tour does provide childcare services to cater for players’ families.

At the time of writing though, she’s a full-time mom to the couple’s three children and travels with Mackenzie on tour.

Jenna Shaw: Can She Play Golf?

After all, she gave up her own job to be able to spend time with him on tour. However, it doesn’t seem like she’s ever taken up the game herself. There’s no proof of her playing golf and practicing her shots.

Jenna Shaw: Social Media

Jenna does have an Instagram account that displays a stunning family photograph. It depicts Mackenzie’s family as his caddies on the course and even their new baby girl is present. However, the posts on Jenna’s account are kept private, so only her 800+ followers can enjoy what she shares.
