KAPALUA, Hawaii – It wasn’t really a secret but former FedExCup champion Jordan Spieth confirmed on Tuesday that he did indeed propose to long-time partner Annie Verret over the holidays. Spieth failed to give too many details of the proposal but confirmed the high school sweethearts are indeed now destined to walk down the aisle at some point in the future. “It was nice,â€� the Texan said of the occasion that came shortly before Christmas. “My brother was in town and her sister got in town, so we had our families there afterwards and it was a great night, really excited.â€� Having faced major championship nerves in the past Spieth said he was well prepared for the big occasion. Trying to close out last year’s Open Championship was more nerve-wracking but he expects those butterflies surrounding the pending nuptials will stay fresh for all time. “I was pretty confident,â€� he smiled. “I’ll probably at some point end up forgetting the British but I won’t probably forget the engagement.â€� Exactly how he popped the question is still not for public consumption although the 11-time PGA TOUR winner almost had to deviate from his plans. “I had a decent idea and then I was pretty sick. And so I had to have a backup plan. But I woke up and felt good that day and went through with it,â€� he added. The 24-year-old has kept his relationship with Verret fairly private over the years short of a few social media posts here and there. In contrast, he’s of course been part of the “Spring Breakâ€� crew with friends Justin Thomas, Rickie Fowler and Smylie Kaufman giving the fans a unique insight into the boy’s trips and vacations he takes. Will those take a back seat now he’s settling down? “No, I think it’s important to have a really nice balance of, obviously, the grind, but then the stress-free kind of take your mind off it and also enjoy the fruits of your labor,â€� Spieth said from Maui. “If we don’t have celebrations of different things that we’re able to accomplish in life, whether it’s a wedding or it’s a great year, or whatever it is, then you’re going to look back in 20 years and say, I just worked my whole life. “If we have the luxury of being able to go out and do that, then I think we’ll enjoy doing so.â€�
