Sami Valimaki has enjoyed a rapid rise in the professional game.
The Finnish player left the amateur game behind in 2019, initially joining the Pro Golf Tour.
Fast-forward to 2023 and, helped by victory at that year’s Qatar Masters, Valimaki was packing his bags for the US after earning his PGA Tour card.
Throughout Valimaki’s impressive professional career, he has had the support of his wife, Emilia Valimaki.
Less than a year after the wedding, there was another milestone moment in the couple’s private life, with Emilia giving birth to their baby son, Max, on November 7th 2024.
Little is known about Emilia’s professional life, although she reportedly graduated in media.

Emilia later revealed to Golfpiste that the win ensured their lives changed very quickly, with a move to America and the PGA Tour suddenly becoming a real possibility.
She said: “Sami made it clear right away that playing here was his goal. I had high hopes that he would get here one day. But when the win came, things changed practically in a day.”
Given how Sami has taken to the PGA Tour, there is little doubt the move has been beneficial, as his career continues to go from strength to strength, and all with Emilia by his side.
