Jason Dufner, Amanda Dufner getting divorced

Jason and Amanda Dufner are getting divorced.

The couple finalized terms of a divorce settlement following the Valspar Championship earlier in March, according to GolfChannel.com. The couple married in 2012, shortly after Dufner won his first PGA Tour event in New Orleans. The couple filed for separation on Feb. 17.

Attorneys for Amanda Dufner filed the divorce paper on March 16 in Jefferson County, Ala., claiming an “irretrievable breakdown of the marriage.”

As part of the agreement, which is yet to be approved by a judge, Amanda Dufner will receive a $2.5 million sum, and Jason Dufner will maintain ownership of two homes in the Auburn area, including one under construction. A judge is expected to approve the settlement in April.

Dufner, the 2013 PGA champion, is expected to play in the Masters.
