Matthew NeSmith Wife

Is Matthew NeSmith married? The golfer is married to his wife Abigail Pait NeSmith. NeSmith proposed to his now wife Abigail Pait on the 18th green of Harbour Town Golf Links in March 2018. NeSmith and Pait were married on Nov. 1, 2019, during a break from his fourth and fifth tournaments as a card-carrying PGA TOUR member.

NeSmith and Pait and Pait had met while both were students at the University of South Carolina. He played golf while she was on the equestrian team.

The two had a mutual friend, Will Starke, who was NeSmith’s roommate and teammate. Pait used to come over to the dorm and have breakfast with Starke each Friday.

“I was sitting on the couch and she came over and said hello and we kind of talked a little bit,” NeSmith remembers. “I was very shy, always shy with pretty girls.”

The two ran into each other later that day. Pait was behind the wheel of her car, and she spotted NeSmith walking on campus.

“She’s very outgoing and I was a little bit shy and awkward to say at least, probably,” the golfer recalls. “And she honked at me with all her friends in the car. She’s like, oh, there’s this nice guy that I just met in Will Starke’s dorm. …I was like, oh, good Lord, and just kind of kept walking. So, she’s like, oh, I guess he’s just shy.”

Abigail was on the equestrian team at the University of South Carolina from 2012 to 2016. She is a supporter of Curing Kids Cancer, a non-profit based out of Atlanta, and the American Quarter Horse Association.
