Man I hate golf and love it so much at the same time." It's not the first time she has expressed, something like this.

I have like anger issues on the golf course.” She loves and hates the sport at same time. She said, "It’s like a toxic relationship. It’s toxic cycle of some days, you’re playing so great. And then you have a bad day you want to quit and then something good happens. It keeps you back in it. And it’s like we’re constantly in this roundabout of like, we love it. We hate it. We love it. We hate it. And that’s what makes it so taxing."
