| Abstract: |
The article focuses on the transformation of golf culture, particularly regarding women's roles and self-expression within the sport. It contrasts the traditional, conservative expectations exemplified by a past golf club membership interview with the modern approach championed by Paige Spiranac, a US-based media personality who has leveraged digital influence to empower female golfers. This shift reflects a broader change from strict dress codes and gatekeeping to a culture where social media presence and personal branding serve as key avenues for opportunity and income. While acknowledging the increased accessibility and empowerment, the article also considers the complexities of moving from traditional restraint to a more revealing and commercially driven golf environment.
