In a heartwarming moment that has touched the hearts of fans worldwide, professional golfer Jordan Spieth and his wife, Annie Verret, have welcomed their third child, a son named Sully Spieth. The announcement, shared via a touching Instagram post on Sunday, July 13, 2025, came just days before Spieth’s return to the golf course for The Open Championship at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland. The joyful news has sparked an outpouring of congratulations from fans, fellow golfers, and the golfing community, celebrating the couple’s growing family and their shared happiness.

The Instagram post featured a tender snapshot of newborn Sully, surrounded by his family, with each member placing a hand on the little one, who was dressed in a charming onesie adorned with construction vehicles. Spieth’s caption read, “We added a new member to the foursome – Sully Spieth! Everyone is doing great ,” reflecting the couple’s overwhelming joy and gratitude. The arrival of Sully marks another milestone for the Spieth family, who are now proud parents to three children: Sammy, born in November 2021, Sophie, born in September 2023, and now Sully, continuing their tradition of choosing names starting with the letter S.

Jordan and Annie, high school sweethearts who tied the knot in Dallas in 2018, have always kept their family life relatively private, making this public announcement all the more special. Spieth had first hinted at the upcoming addition to their family during an appearance on The Smylie Show in February 2025, casually mentioning, “We have a third coming in July, so it’s busy.” The news sent waves of excitement through the golfing world, and now, with Sully’s arrival, fans have taken to social media to express their delight. Posts from accounts like the PGA Tour and Golf Digest shared warm congratulations, with comments like “Congrats to Jordan and his family on their newest addition ” and “Beautiful baby!!!!!! ,” capturing the celebratory mood.

The timing of Sully’s birth is particularly significant, as it comes after a challenging period for Spieth. The three-time major champion had to withdraw from the Travelers Championship in June 2025 due to a neck and upper back injury, marking the first time he had ever pulled out of a PGA Tour event in his 297 career starts. Additionally, Spieth underwent wrist surgery in 2024, which had sidelined him earlier in his career. Choosing to extend his break to be present for the birth of his third child, Spieth demonstrated his commitment to family, a value he has often emphasized. In a recent interview on the “Up & Adams Show,” he confirmed he was back to full strength and ready to compete at The Open, stating, “I’m good, it was a weird neck spasm thing that just came up… I knew it was going to be short-lived.”

As Spieth prepares to tee off alongside Ludvig Aberg and Viktor Hovland at The Open Championship, the arrival of Sully adds an extra layer of motivation. The 31-year-old Dallas native, currently ranked 48th in the world, has had a solid season with four top-10 finishes, though he has yet to secure a victory since 2022. Fans are hopeful that this new chapter in his personal life will inspire a strong performance at Royal Portrush, where he aims to reclaim the Claret Jug he won in 2017. The golfing community has also expressed disappointment that Spieth’s group was not featured in the tournament’s broadcast, with many praising his star power and potential for exciting play.

Beyond his professional achievements, Spieth’s devotion to his family shines through. He has often credited Annie for being his rock, supporting him through the highs and lows of his career. In a 2021 press conference at the Valero Texas Open, he praised her, saying, “She’s just been that person that said, ‘Whatever you need to do, I’m here to support you.’” As the Spieth family transitions to life as a family of five, the golf world joins in celebrating their joy, wishing them love and happiness with their newest member, Sully.
