After playing with Couples in a pro-am event a few months ago, Lee was surprised to receive text messages from him almost every day. “Every single day, you’re so good at golf. You need to believe it,” Lee quoted Couples as saying. His consistent messages of support and encouragement eventually started to resonate with Lee, and she began to believe in herself more.

Couples, a Major winner and two-time Players champion, has had a successful career and is regarded as one of the greatest golfers of the 80s and 90s. He has shown unwavering support for Lee, even giving her the nickname “Mrs. Monster” and sending her messages of praise and encouragement after her rounds. Lee expressed her gratitude for Couples’ support, stating, “He’s been amazing. He’s been, yeah, my biggest fan over the last month. It’s been really, really cool.”

For Lee, having someone of Couples’ stature believe in her abilities has been both surreal and uplifting. His consistent reassurance has played a significant role in helping Lee regain her confidence and perform at her best. With Couples in her corner, Lee is feeling more empowered and optimistic about her future in golf.
