“The best part of my job is being able to connect with so many people around the world. I’ve had some amazing interactions with my followers who share stories about how I helped them with their mental health or parents talking about how I got their daughters into golf.”

...“I’m so lucky I get to work with so many cool companies and I get to play around with their products.”

“I really value this aspect of my job, especially as someone who struggled financially at times growing up and not having clubs and golf accessories accessible to me.”

"The hate. I’m a public figure which means anyone can comment on every aspect of my life, my opinions, my content, and my body," Spiranac said. "I’ve developed some thick skin and spent so much money on therapy to help me cope. I’m used to it now but there are times that it’s pretty intense where it will still get to me."
...
"Stalkers, blackmail, lack of privacy. I went through a stretch this year where I was afraid to leave my house and was quite uncomfortable going in public," she explained. "I didn’t feel like I could live a normal life anymore. I went to a wedding after a stressful work trip and wanted to let loose. I was pounding some shots and having a great time until I noticed 4 guys videotaping me and taking pictures."
