Although Wayne Gretzky hasn't always seen eye-to-eye with his son-in-law Dustin Johnson in the past, they appear to be in a much better place now. Gretzky appeared on the "Smartless" podcast on Nov. 7 and candidly spoke about his relationship with the professional golfer. Gretzky said, "I still get nervous playing with him ... he's just intimidating, but he's so nice. He's one of those guys, he just has a love for the game, and if he plays with a beginner or a 10 handicap or with his boys, he has the patience of a saint." The hockey legend spoke fondly about Johnson's love for the game, as well, revealing, "He just truly loves the game and, that's something really special — you either have that, or you don't, and he has that."
When Gretzky addressed what kind of son-in-law Johnson is, he explained, "Oh, he's the best. There's an old saying in golf, 'When you hit a bad shot, you call it a son-in-law,' and people say, 'What does that mean?' and you say, 'It's not quite what I had in mind.' I'm the opposite; my son-in-law is the best. He's great to his kids, he's a good father, he's a wonderful guy."
Although Johnson is still beyond busy with his professional golfing career, he always seems to make time for his family. Most recently, Johnson was named the inaugural LIV Golf champion, according to the Daily Mail.
