"I might be biased, but golf is such a great sport, and I'm so happy to see it finally crossing over into the mainstream, especially with the pandemic. When I was a junior golfer, most of my clothes were men's because there weren't really any cool female golf lines. The sport has gotten a lot edgier, and I think the fashion is definitely following. Companies like Nike Golf have done so much to reinvent traditional golf wear and put equity into the women's category. Athleisure has become such a big part of fashion culture too. There are a lot of times where I'll wear golf pants and not change out of them before going grocery shopping or out to lunch — it's a nice in-between that looks like a pant, but feels comfortable. And it doesn't stick out as uber-country club-esque. If my daughter decides that she wants to play golf, I hope there are endless options for her, whether that's fashion or accessibility to courses and tee times and equipment."
