Who is Tyler Shough's wife?

Tyler Shough's wife is Jordan Shough, who is a former soccer player at Oregon.

The two athletes both represented the Ducks at the same time and met while at Oregon. Ultimately, Tyler transferred and wound up finishing his college career at Louisville.

Jordan Shough told "Women In Flight" in 2023 that her parents inspired her soccer journey. 

"My mom and dad were both college athletes, so it was just what you did in my family," Shough told Women in Flight. "My mom was a soccer player and a coach. I took my first steps on the soccer field, which sounds so cliche, but it's actually what happened. So, it's been in my blood, it's what you do in my family."

Jordan graduated from Oregon in 2022, and the couple got engaged in the same year. In 2024, Tyler and Jordan Shough got married in La Jolla, CA. 

Jordan often supported Tyler throughout his NCAA career. Now, they're set to spend plenty of time in New Orleans.
