Dustin Johnson, 28, currently the 12th ranked golfer in the world, won the Tournament of Champions in Hawaii on Monday. However, the bigger story is that Paulina Gretzky, 24, socialite daughter of hockey icon Wayne Gretzky, was in his company, fueling the rumors that the two are dating.

"If the laid-back Johnson looked strangely comfortable on the Plantation Course it comes from the extra time he's spent here. Needing to break in new irons and a new driver, Johnson arrived early and played six practice rounds. (That also allowed him to spend some quality time with his new squeeze Paulina Gretzky)," reported Alan Shipnuck.

For her part, Gretzky posted a photo of Hawaii on her Instagram page with the caption "Another Morning In Paradise."

Neither of Johnson nor Gretsky has confirmed that they are dating. Last year, Johnson brought his then girlfriend, golfer Natalie Gulbis, 30, to the same Tournament of Champions.

It has also recently been reported that Gretzky is dating LA Kings player Jarret Stoll, 30, which Gretzky has denied. "We just met through mutual friends during the playoffs… but we’re not dating. Everyone can know this now! I pick the wrong guys, so I’m waiting for the right guy to come pick me," she told Flare Magazine for an upcoming issue.
