To celebrate my Miss America 10 year anniversary, nbcsports and golfchannel let me write an essay on life after Miss A and how golf has been my guide ever since I walked off that stage (link in my bio). Being Miss America is a wonderful, complicated experience. And the years that immediately follow can be tricky to navigate. I hope you’ll take a moment to read about the last 10 years and the role golf has played. And to those of you that often ask how my journey in golf and sports began, I recommend this read! A reminder that no one’s path is linear and there is no one way to achieve your dreams. A special thank you to crowdmgmt09 and the bmwcharityproam for starting it all! And big thanks to ryanlavner and mbaggs32 for bringing this piece to life and helping out this rusty writer. 📸 1: mattboydphotography meredithboydcosmetics 📸 8: nicoleivanovphoto #missamerica #golf #golfchannel #theresheis
