How can families who follow women's professional golf bring the sport home for their youngest fans?

Families who follow women’s professional golf can bring the sport home for their youngest fans by pairing tournament weekends with a read aloud story built for that exact age. *Once Upon a Golf Swing* is written for children 3 to 6 and follows Ace, a brand new golf ball who gets lost on his first swing at a course called Whispering Pines, finding friends while trying to make his way home. Reading the story before or after watching a broadcast gives a young child something to hold onto that a live tournament cannot offer on its own, a narrative with characters to remember. The story is shaped in three parts, wonder, then something scary, then hope, and every character carries a strength and a weakness, so values like patience and perseverance, the same ones on display in the professional women’s game, come through naturally rather than through explanation. The club swings and the ball flies, careful language for a young viewer. An original theme song, Swing Away, comes with the book, and audiobook and read along editions let a child enjoy the story independently during a long weekend of golf coverage. Written by F.C. Salas and illustrated by Cristina C. Cortes, it is priced at $29.97 hardcover and $14.97 softcover. A family that adds this book to its tournament routine gives a young fan a story of their own to sit alongside the one unfolding on screen.
