Golf Broke Me // Tiger Dads // Ep. 21

In this powerful Tiger Dads episode, Beau and Jason sit down with former elite junior golfer turned comedian Diana Hong for one of the most honest conversations we’ve had about pressure, expectations, and identity in junior golf.Diana shares her journey from being one of the top young golfers in the country and earning an offer to play at Stanford University, to ultimately walking away from the game entirely after years of mounting pressure and burnout. What looked like success from the outside slowly became something much heavier behind the scenes.She opens up about the role family expectations played in her relationship with golf, how the game stopped being something she loved, and why stepping away ultimately led her toward comedy, self-discovery, and a healthier perspective on competition and achievement.Now, years later, Diana talks about reconnecting with golf in a completely different way...without the pressure, fear, and emotional weight that once defined it.This episode is both a success story and a cautionary tale. It’s an important conversation for junior golfers, parents, and anyone trying to balance ambition with happiness in youth sports.++++++++++++++++++++++++++Welcome to Tiger Dads, the podcast hacking the world of junior golf...because raising a golfer is hard and therapy is expensive.Featuring interviews with pros, top amateur players, college coaches, celebrity guests and industry experts, each episode offers valuable insight into the do’s, don'ts, and downright wild moments of junior golf.We make the mistakes...so you don't have to!++++++++++++++++++++++++++More Tiger Dads!
