Jake Knapp is a PGA Tour winne, and he is seeking out his second official PGA Tour win (and his third overall) at the 2025 3M Open in Minnesota. Knapp hopes to walk off the green at the TPC Twin Cities to his girlfriend, Makena White, to celebrate that win.

Makena White and Jake Knapp got together in 2023, toward the tail end of the year as Knapp was earning his PGA Tour card through the Korn Ferry Tour.

White is a medical sales rep, is from Canada and has traveled with Knapp, particularly to see his breakthrough win at the 2024 Mexico Open at Vidanta. Knapp also teamed up with the LPGA's Patty Tavatanakit to win the 2024 Grant Thornton Invitational.
