'I’m Moving Halfway Around The World, Here’s Why Golf Has Helped It Become Less Daunting'

Lili Dewrance.

For years I would have classed myself as a ‘golf non-believer’, failing to understand how people became so hooked on this sport which I deemed unwelcoming to a female audience. However, since April my mindset on golf has totally shifted and I now have plans to pack my bags and head on a five-month trip to the US and Costa Rica, where I'll be living as a digital nomad. Despite always having a desire to work and travel, I believe golf has given me that extra push I needed to make it happen.

I've come to realise that despite the traditional gender barriers associated with taking up golf, once young women are introduced to the sport, many, like myself, discover a meaningful connection. After going through the women’s golf academy at Pitch London, I found it inspiring to hear stories of women who experience newfound confidence to try new things or push the boundaries in other areas of their lives.
