Plenty of golf fans are well aware of Brandt Snedeker by now, with nine PGA Tour wins, top-12 finishes in all four Majors and two Ryder Cup appearances on his resume as well as over $40 million in career earnings.

In 2004, Brandt turned pro and he navigated the early years of his career well, graduating onto the PGA Tour. It was a little after that, in 2008, that Snedeker and Mandy married.
Since then, the pair moved to Nashville, Tennessee and raised two children, Lily and Austin who are now also Vanderbilt fans. According to the Vanderbilt website, the family often attend college games together.

On the subject of college, Mandy and Brandt set up the Snedeker golf scholarship in 2017 to help support the men’s golf program at their Alma Mater.
Discussing the decision at the time, Mandy said: “We are both proud Commodores, but the golf program holds special importance for Brandt. He takes great pride in the current players, their accomplishments, and how the program keeps improving.
“We hope this gift enhances everything else Coach Limbaugh is doing and that it gives future Vanderbilt golfers the same opportunity to experience success on and off the course that Brandt’s scholarship gave him.”
Similarly, Mandy and Brandy created the Snedeker Foundation following the pro golfer’s FedEx Cup victory in 2012. The charity aims to support several social and athletic initiatives across Tennessee, and Mandy remains a key part of the organization when she isn’t out supporting Brandt at events.
