The pursuit of golf as a career is undoubtedly an area that presents unique challenges and opportunities for women, especially mothers. It can be difficult to juggle the demands of being a mother with the intense training and competition schedule that are necessary for top-level playing in golf. While it is a difficult task, many prominent figures in the golf world have done an excellent job in both areas. And this was highlighted on the LPGA this week as they celebrated a special day!

The LPGA Tour is underway in Clifton, New Jersey, as the Cognizant Founders Cup is taking place from May 11–14, the weekend of Mother’s Day. With the event starting today, some LPGA Tour stars celebrated the occasion with their special ones.
