There are some things you have to see to believe. Lindsey Weaver-Wright casually holed out a final shot before starting maternity leave like it was no big deal.
Truthfully, sometimes athletes don’t receive enough credit. Their schedules can be grueling and demanding. Often, there are minimal breaks, and if you’re a parent and a professional athlete, that requires a new level of commitment. LPGA tour player Lindsey Weaver-Wright handles it like a boss.
Weaver-Wright is seven months pregnant and making light work of the Ascendant LPGA course in Irving, Texas. According to Keely Levins of Golf Digest, the mom-to-be has been pushing through tournament play despite having to make adjustments along the way, like carrying a chair to sit between shots.
Still, Weaver-Wright remained undeterred. On Sunday, she hit a shot that even she couldn’t believe.

Just like she drew it up, Weaver-Wright holed out her final shot for Eagle before her maternity leave started. Wow. No big deal.
When asked about her journey to this point, per Golfweek ,Weaver-Wright said:
“It’s been tough, to be honest,” said Weaver-Wright of playing pregnant. “I have a lot of different ailments day-to-day it seems like. But, I mean, I’ve taken the last two weeks with just the mindset that I’m just happy to be out here, lucky my body has allowed me to take it this far into pregnancy.”
This is amazing. You love to see it.
