Meeting Her husband :

Webb & Dowd met each other at Wake Forest University where both were enrolled and ran into each other at a party hosted by a mutual friend.

After her marriage though her career only played second fiddle to her role of a golf wife. She makes it a point to accompany her husband on his many tours. Dowd, when 7½ months pregnant, had walked all 72 holes on a hilly golf course with Webb!

Interesting Facts and Trivia :

One interesting fact about the couple is that both Dowd and Webb prefer to go by their middle names.
Most of Dowd’s family attended Wake Forest University, including her parents – father Greg and mother India. And also her siblings – brother Graeme and sister Tanner!

Dowd was a senior to her husband in college; when he was a freshman she was a sophomore!
The reason for the couple meeting is Maggie Simmons, who is Dowd’s best friend. Anecdotes state that when Maggie heard that Webb Simpson will be joining Dowd’s university, she actually teased her best friend by saying her “future husband” was coming.
There are also reports that Webb’s father Sam played wingman for his son and offered $100 to Dowd for taking his son out on a date. She responded with an equal jest that she would be happy to go out with him if he was half as cute as his father.

The couple eventually did use the money given by his father to buy themselves a steak dinner at Ryan’s which they claim is their favorite restaurant.
Interestingly it wasn’t all like a fairy tale as the couple broke up after college for a whole year and then reconnected with each other and ended up marrying.
