The golfer, who turned professional in 2017, met Maya when he visited the physical therapy clinic she worked at in Las Vegas. He proposed to her at Lake Tahoe in August 2023, and they got married that December.
She’s been there to support him in both his golfing career and his passion for flying — Maverick is a licensed pilot — and often accompanies him to tournaments. She was there to witness Maverick's first tour win at the RSM Classic in Georgia in November 2024 — and had the important role of calling the golfer's parents on Facetime after he birdied the 18th hole.
“Maya knew her job, if it went well today, to get them on the phone as soon as possible walking off 18. I’m the luckiest guy ever," Maverick said at the winner's press conference.
So who is Maverick McNealy’s wife? Here’s everything to know about Maya McNealy and her relationship with the professional golfer.
