Dustin Johnson Pays Tribute to Future Father-in-Law Wayne Gretzky With ‘99’ Shoes

Dustin Johnson arguably has one of the most famous future father-in-law’s out there: hockey legend Wayne Gretzky.

Johnson has been engaged to Gretzky’s daughter Paulina since 2013, but the couple has yet to actually tie the knot. In August 2021, the couple released wedding plans, so it is possible the couple will finally get married in 2022. They share two children.

So, although Gretzky isn’t officially Johnson’s father-in-law, the two are nearly family. Gretzky has played in pro-ams with Johnson before, and he has always supported his future son-in-law’s golf career. So, Adidas saw this family relationship as a way of commemorating the hockey great.
