Who is Justin Leonard’s CEO Wife Amanda Leonard? Her Personal Life, Career, & More Explored

While PGA Tour pro-Justin Leonard has carved out a legendary career on the course, it’s his life off the course that tells an equally compelling story. Known for his calm demeanor and impressive victories, including 12 PGA Tour wins, Leonard has balanced his golfing success with a fulfilling personal life. That life is shared with his wife, Amanda Leonard — a dynamic woman in her own right. From meeting in the hallways of an apartment complex to raising three children while traveling the world, Amanda’s story is just as inspiring as Leonard’s.

It all started with a simple encounter. Amanda had just moved to Dallas from Florida, looking to build her career after working at CNN in Atlanta. Little did she know, she’d end up living just down the hall from PGA Tour player Leonard. Their first meeting wasn’t anything extraordinary — it was a quick interaction in the hallway. But sometimes, those small moments end up changing everything. At the time, Amanda didn’t know much about Leonard’s golf career. “He was about to move from the building, so it’s really fateful that we were able to meet in such a short time period,” she said. Their connection was immediate, and after a year of dating, they were engaged. Five months later, they were married and off on a year-long honeymoon, traveling the world while Leonard competed on the PGA Tour.
