    The Comparison Trap in Junior Golf // Lessons from LPGA's Jenny Bae

    In this Tiger Dads episode, Beau and Jason tackle one of the biggest traps in junior golf: Comparing your kids development to their peers. Whether it's tournament scores, driving distance, rankings, growth spurts, or social media highlights, it's easy for parents and players to look around and wonder if they're falling behind. The guys discuss the dangers of comparing your child's development to everyone else's, why late bloomers often get overlooked, and some of the ways they've tried to keep their own daughters grounded when the pressure starts to build. Then Beau and Emmy sit down with LPGA rising star Jenny Bae to talk about her journey through junior golf and beyond. Jenny shares how she got started in the game at just three years old, the sacrifices her parents made to support her dreams, and how golf became a true family activity. She reflects on the lessons she learned growing up, the gratitude she feels toward her parents for introducing her to the game, and why some of her favorite memories aren't about trophies or rankings, but the fun experiences she shared with family and friends along the way. This episode is a reminder that every golfer develops at their own pace, and that success in junior golf isn't measured by how quickly you get there...it's measured by whether you still love the game when you do. +++++++++++++++++++++++++ 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!
