MATT FITZPATRICK is aiming for glory at The Open this week.
And cheering him every step of the way is his stunning girlfriend Katherine Gaal, who has been a keen supporter since they started dating.
The couple made things official in January with a social media post - then Fitzpatrick later shared a heartfelt message to Katherine on Valentine's Day.
They have attended several golf tournaments together this year including the RBC Heritage, which Fitzpatrick won.
The Brit collected $20million (£15.5m) after defeating Jordan Spieth in a dramatic play-off to secure his second second PGA Tour win, adding to the US Open title he won last year.

Earlier that month Fitzpatrick played alongside Katherine at Augusta for the Par 3 contest at the 2023 Masters.
Katherine looked the part in her green Masters cap and matching trainers but she is not a natural when it comes to golf, having previously worked as a tennis professional at Bay Head Yacht Club in New Jersey.
The marketing manager has had a varied career since finishing as runner-up in Miss New Jersey in 2014.
She now works for a software development company in New Jersey but could have had a very different career.
That's because Katherine graduated from Penn State University with a double major in general finance and broadcast journalism.
Fortunately for Katherine her work does not prevent her from attending events with Fitzpatrick.
The pair were spotted together at the Netflix premiere of the behind-the-scenes golf documentary Full Swing.
Katherine also joined Fitzpatrick in Hawaii as he kicked off his 2023 season at the Tournament of Champions.
