The Hall of Famer and the Turn 2 Foundation have previously organized a number of golf competitions. But with a guest list full of A-list celebrities, the Invitational is one of the biggest and grandest competitions. The event for this year is already in progress, and former professional golfer Spiranac, is once again a hot topic.
The Yankees legend’s Turn 2 Foundation recently took to their Instagram from the event, and uploaded a video on their story starring the golf diva. In the clip, the 30-year-old discusses how, despite numerous obstacles, she has been able to thrive and inspire herself. The golf media influencer remarked, while encouraging the fans, “A really great lesson that I’ve learned is to stay patient and accept failure. Every time that I feel like my career was over, I feel like I really failed. That’s when I grew the most and that’s when my business started to succeed the next day or the next step and so just keep on going.”
The main aim of the event surely is all about giving back to the community. And helping the youth develop into leaders. Keeping in view these objectives, Spiranac’s words surely are inspiring the youth to achieve and fulfill their dreams.
