You know, the kids get dropped off and mom has to go do her job.
But when they get picked up,
it's like you're not a pro golfer anymore.
And that's like it's job. Number two,
you gotta switch hats very quickly. And,
but it's so rewarding. It's so, um, I'm so grateful to be able to do both.
And, you know, I, I would have never cacic having kids.
I've always wanted to have kids and
it's just cool to have them with me and be able to do, do what I love.
Britney Linscomb
is a celebrated L PGA tour veteran.
She's a two time major winner and played in six Solheim Cups
in addition to the daily grind of professional golf life.
Britney is also a devoted wife and mom to daughters, Emery,
who's four and Sophia who's nearly two.
Come on,
just like the millions of other working moms out there.
Britney has a lot on her plate.
So, in honor of Mother's Day, Britney,
let us tag along with her and her adorable girls to see
what life is like on a typical L PGA tournament weekday.
We watched them have breakfast, go to daycare.
And then hit the golf course at the Ford Championship.
We started the day by visiting Britney's family at
their rental house for the week in Arizona.
She was hiding in there
together.
Are you able to sleep in anymore? Um,
you kinda base it around the baby because, you know,
she normally sleeps 7 to 7 if I go to bed
early enough to get my nine hours or whatever, I like to get,
I gotta go to bed sometimes before the sun's going down.
But then I get all my sleep and it's fine.
It's, it's like the silliest things that make them happy, you know. Oh yeah.
She's gonna get you, she's gonna get you.
Oh my goodness go. No, let's be careful.
Come here.
You just wanna put a bow on it. You're gonna put in a ponytail.
Uh
a,
a po uh
oh,
ok. Let's just go
for the so you goose, stop it. You goose get over here
and she's going to do it again.
Sophia.
Ok. You're ready to go, go,
go, go,
go, go.
Is it on
all right? Good job.
Ok, let's go.
Let's go, go, go wash the carpet
and so they've already had breakfast.
No, no,
of course to have breakfast. Yep.
Yep. Ok. That's helpful.
I mean we had goldfish to get us until we get there
and then we'll have a proper good breakfast.
Oh, you wanna, oh,
thank you. That is so nice. The love you little ones.
Yeah, that's really sweet.
A hug from mom. Of course.
Ok. In the car. Come on.
All right,
once Britney and the girls arrive at the course it's time to fuel up for the day.
Hey,
what are you excited to have for breakfast? Say it again.
Eggs. Oh my gosh.
Like
the
white
part.
Just like the white part I get that.
Are you loving this day?
Britney loaded up plates with their favorite things and the girls
provided plenty of free entertainment as they enjoyed their breakfast.
After breakfast, it was time for mom to get to work.
One of the L PGA s most significant perks is an on site day care.
The hours are flexible to accommodate each mom's competitive schedule and
while the location varies by venue from week to week,
the staff and setting remains as consistent as
possible to create comforting continuity for the kids.
Barine May, the LP G A's daycare director has been a constant presence for 21 years.
My motto is just to help as much as I can to make their lives out here.
It's hard being
traveling
and a lot of them are by themselves. So I wanna make
life easy.
Once Britney's kids were settled in Britney's official on course work day began.
Today is a pro
day.
So Britney started her range warm up before heading
out to meet her group on the first tee.
That a boy nice.
Oh,
your whole head
it's too much pressure,
too much pressure.
Ok. I'm done. I've contributed,
I'm done.
Tell me a little bit about, you know,
the lifestyle that you're providing for your girls.
Obviously you're traveling the country, the world.
Um, that can seem a little bit intimidating. It's, it's unorthodox and yet,
you know, they're thriving and I feel like it's,
it's maybe developing their personality in ways that maybe even are surprising to
you as you're kind of watching them grow up in this environment.
Yeah, for sure. It's just cool to get them out and, and around people and not be
shy or not.
You know,
obviously there's a fine line of stranger danger but also
like being approachable and going to people and being friendly.
So, um,
it's cool to kinda take them to different places
and show them different parts of the world.
Emery wants to see snow so bad. So everywhere we go she's like, are we gonna see snow?
And I'm like,
no. Yeah.
Yeah.
Not normally anyway, she's, she's,
she's gets it and gets that we're going on vacation in new
places and it's just cool to introduce them to different things.
What are the positives that you feel being a mom has, has brought to your game?
You know, I feel like it should make me more calm and, and just, you know,
I have a beautiful family, beautiful husband, like all this great stuff, but just,
it's golf.
It still makes you super frustrated, you know, I wanna win every week
and when you don't play well, it's just super frustrating still.
But I keep pictures of my girls in my yardage book and,
you know, you just try to think you have a bad hole or a bad shot.
You're like, I still have, these two beautiful girls are healthy.
You know, things could be so much worse. Like, I mean, I get paid to play golf.
That's like the craziest thing ever. So,
um super lucky, super blessed and uh just to have them out and, you know, again,
still puts a smile on my face.
You know, when I get to see them after a round of golf, it's the first place that I go.
I wanna go get them as quickly as possible and,
and just see the little smiling faces.
You have to read me a book. Hi,
you honorary little thing.
Peek
a boo
mama
daddy?
Sissy
Dex.
He's a boy
belly button.
Oh, I like it. We started and then we had lunch.
Oh, is it a rainbow panda
bear
colored pencils is the way to go.
Did you find a marker and got mom that didn't last long.
There's a paper.
You where? Where's blue?
This blue?
See you tomorrow. Hi, thanks
Pine.
Have a great rest of the day. Uh
Bumpy road.
Let's go this way.
Where to next? Some rest, relaxation and family time
and preparing to do it all again tomorrow
as Britney continues her 20th year of competition on the L PGA tour. This season,
one thing is clear,
her greatest triumph, has nothing to do with the tournament victory these days.
The only title that truly matters
is mom.
