I literally post swing videos. Like, how is that interesting? But I've created such a following, and they're loyal fans. It's really cool to create a community around something I love, and that they love, too.

I'm really trying to do everything I can to bring golf to people who have never done it before, as well as just make golf fun and cool.

People say I haven't accomplished anything, but I feel like I've done a lot. I'm an ambassador for the Cybersmile Foundation, which is an anti-bullying organization.

I'm a content creator, so I like to read the comments, and I like to engage, because if people aren't interested in what I'm doing, then I'm not doing a good job.

I was a tomboy. I played football and wasn't afraid to get dirty. Shopping? Not for me.

If you look at what people typically wear when they play, OK, my clothes could be considered provocative. But I'm not wearing them for a reaction. I'm just comfortable in fitness clothing. Golf is a sport, so dress like an athlete. Name another sport where people wear khakis and cotton polos?

I'm introverted, and all my friends make fun of me because all I do is work out and play golf. I'm a grandma: stay in most nights and asleep by 9:30.

My strength is short game. I love the creative side to it. You can hit a wedge a million different ways. The flop is my fave.

All I ever wanted was to be a golfer on the LPGA tour. That's still my dream, but getting there has turned out to be a lot more complicated than I thought.

Everyone knew I was home-schooled. Everyone always said I was weird, and they're kind of right. And I think people can always tell that I'm a weak link. So if you are going to bully someone, I'm an easy target.

You know what, I was one of the top 25 amateurs in the world. I had a pretty good college career.

If someone is misrepresenting my playing career, I try to correct them. If they say something mean about me I'll let them know it hurts my feelings. But I've noticed that the best thing for me is to show love back to them and show positivity and by doing that you gain a fan.

As my followers know, I'm always looking for ways to improve my game and have a little more fun on the course.

For me, working with kids is one of my favorite ways to give back, and I refuse to let public opinion about whether I'm a 'winner' stop me from being a positive role model and mentor.

Every child thrives on encouragement, but beware of forcing it. I've seen too many family relationships crumble because of excessive ambition on the course or the range.

People seem to think I got where I am because of the clothes that I wear.

I dress differently, I don't conform to what golf is supposed to be.

You may not even realize how much your off-the-rack clubs are affecting your game.

I'm not ashamed of my social media following, my Sports Illustrated swimsuit shoot, or the tough time I had in my LPGA debut, but these small facets of my life are easily manipulated by the Internet to get views, and they don't define me as a person.

I started playing golf after a broken knee led me to quit my career as an elite gymnast. It wasn't long before I became one of the world's top-ranked amateur players.
