In the past, Jenny Shin has opened up about her own mental health struggles. After she secured a spot for the US Women’s Open, she disclosed her journey toward qualifying for the event was a testament to her resilience as the struggles she faced were not on the course but rather with respect to her mental health.
She admitted that with every passing day it was getting increasingly difficult for her to keep faith in her own game because of the slump in her golf performance. She confessed that she was struggling with takeaway and tee shots.
Shin has been a professional for the past 13 years and has withstood the test of time watching the sport transform as each year passed. Now that she’s in a better space and performing well. As a result, her sense of humor has once again returned and the fans could not be happier.

One fan upped the ante. First, he asked if she also drank sparkling wine. And then he went on to trash “city stuff”.
Sparkling wine too? 😜 Fwiw, I drink well water. And am cool as not worried one bit about anything in it. Better than the city stuff.

There isn’t really a space where Taylor Swift does not make an appearance. This Twitter string was no different. Though not sure if Jenny Shin will find it in good taste.
Do you know how they make it sparkling. They collect Taylor Swift’s farts and inject it into the water 🤣😂🤣😂
