Iona Stephen: The Dream, the Injury and the Career That Followed

Welcome to ‘Her Game’, the modern golf podcast bringing you conversations with inspiring women across the golf industry. In the first episode of Her Game, host Georgina Black sits down with broadcaster and former professional golfer Iona Stephen at the AIG Women’s Open. They’ll discuss ambition, injury, reinvention and finding your own space within the game. Iona shares her late journey into golf, the highs and lows of her professional career and how she found her new way as a live TV broadcaster. Beyond her career, she reflects on why golf can offer sanctuary, confidence, friendship and genuine connection, and why women should not feel guilty for making time to play. She also discusses the growth of women’s golf, the importance of brands showing meaningful support and the next chapter of her work within the game.As she mentions at the start, she typically finds herself on the other side of the conversation, and rarely sits in the hot seat. We’re very grateful to Iona for being so open and sharing her incredible insight as part of the first episode of Her Game. Lots more to come so make sure you’re following along.
