Embracing Outdoor Sports
Since retiring, Patrick has focused on personal passions, particularly golf. She admitted the game can be humbling, saying she struggles but enjoys the challenge.

She also extended an open invitation to friends, writing,
“Friends, if you like adventuring, wine, amazing food, golf, hiking, biking, skiing, tennis and wine…plan your trip to come see me.” – Danica Patrick
Her previous trips to Colorado, including a ski vacation in Aspen in 2023, clearly influenced her decision to invest in property in the state.

Her primary residence is in Arizona, and she previously purchased a $28 million Malibu home with former boyfriend Aaron Rodgers in 2019. The Malibu property, formerly owned by Robbie Williams, was paid for in cash. Although her relationship with Rodgers ended in 2020 amid emotional challenges, Patrick has moved forward and now focuses on life in her new Colorado home.
“Because it was sudden, it felt like. It was my life. So like when you live with somebody, it’s your whole life,” – Danica Patrick
