Love u a lex ❤

[@davidedmondson5633]

Thank you for sharing this. It gives fans a real insider look at all of it.

[@Jeff-t2y]

"My parents freaked out about me possibly being kidnapped, but the good news is I found a great coffee shop"!!! Alexis is hilarious, she has personality for days!! Wow, I was already a big Marissa fan but when you said that you're a Christian, that really, really won me over!! Keep your faith in Christ, it's much more important than golf!! ❤❤❤

[@robertbroom4076]

Marissa and Alexis are so great together. Keep you head up!

[@TheoSeltz]

You're such a natural on KZbin! I became a fan watching GGG. You're gorgeous, poised, well spoken and seemingly a lot of fun! Great luck on tour.

[@vbeard5887]

Glad to see the video journey! Hope you keep us involved in your golf journey.

[@davidKingspawn]

Thank you for sharing your golf journey. You're awesome 😎

[@NotAllWhoWanderAreLost641]

Rooting for you Marissa. So happy to hear your Christian roots! The world needs more influencers like you

[@TheLongAndWindingRoad]

Yes 🙌

[@amished037]

Every hurdle is something to overcome and put behind you. Keep your chin up, learn from the experience, and keep moving forward. You got this!

[@GolferDaveT]

I'm looking forward to watching, but 1st, I have to say you killed that singing punishment on GGG. I know I couldn't have done it. You rocked it. ❤

[@marissawenzler]

Thank you hahahaha it was quite embarrassing

[@favorites7578]

As young adults figuring out your lives I admire your strength and convictions through adversity. Stay mentally strong. That will elevate and separate at your competitive level. Swing free!

[@brianscott5137]

I love watching your videos. Thank You for sharing your thoughts, and feelings.

[@pritchardhall]

So much respect for pro golfers. 99.9% of us would fold on day 1. Thank you for the insight, and we wish you the best. Stay healthy and faith-first.

[@davidhermanski5544]

You are an impressively self-reflective young lady, be proud of that and continue to leverage it. Best wishes to you as you continue to attack your goals. Thanks for creating and sharing!

[@BIIIKES]

Marissa, thank you for ALWAYS being honest and vulnerable for us in KZbin Land. So very important to have someone you either trust on the bag, or find someone that gets "you" and your headspace. Figuring out yardages and aim points as a caddy can only take you so far with your athlete. You HAVE to know where their head is at and keep them from spending too much time in it. I caddied for years and would always bring up last night's ballgame, crack a joke, or just offer real world encouragement and/or "check them" when they needed to be checked. You're a rock star, Marissa. Truly, truly pulling for you. Maybe it's the dad and former caddie in me coming out, but you definitely have the game to go further. Your glassy eyed commentary after your 74 hit me all up in the feels, my friend. Hope to meet or play golf with you one day. My two girls say hi ⛳🙌

[@marissawenzler]

This is so kind thank you and tell them hello for me !

[@BIIIKES]

@@marissawenzler You got it 💪

[@zachchinn4608]

I had to learn the hard way but you said it so perfectly. I had this with my career. I was putting my identity into my title at work. God worked big on my heart. Glad you’re learning this at a young age. Just keep giving it 100%. Your swing is awesome and if God wants you on the LPGA, it will happen in his time.

[@Andyhod7294]

Love these vlogs. They're incredibly insightful and entertaining. Thanks for taking us along the journey with you. Taking time to reflect, journal, understand and coming up with a plan to deal with it in a more positive manner will stand you in good stead for the future. I've said it before but I'll say it again anyways...you and Alexis are the best golfing, vibe and comedy duo on KZbin right now. So funny to watch you two carving it up both on and on off the course

[@gerry453]

Thanks for this video and sharing your feelings, can totally relate how you feel after a bad round. It's a hard pill to swallow but we all know you can do better next time. Keep on grinding!

[@MSDOGS1976]

Golf is hard. I’ve been playing for over 50 years and I have my goods days and bad. At my age I have more bad than good but the good ones bring me back. Plus socializing on the course with friends is fun. Good luck on your journey.

[@williamturner1441]

The two things in life that make it most difficult. People and our own head space. You have no control over people so surround yourself with like minded people and to help with your head space have prayer time in the morning, praise God walking the course and finish with more prayer before sleeping. Also, let things happen naturally and don't want it so bad that the littlest thing derails your hopes and dreams of playing professionally. God Bless !!

[@tobychunn]

I'm sorry you didn't have the experience you hoped for. I really have gotten to become fans of you and Alexis through these vlogs and the GGG. Just hang in there. These events will make you stronger. Go Cats!

[@rasputin6727]

Sounds like you grew a lot as a person and a golfer during the experience, you obviously want this dream for yourself so just like faith it's a constant growth about finding balance. May sound odd but when you're picking aiming spots even putts see a cross. You look fabulous keep trusting the process. Thanks for sharing!

[@dthomas73778]

Great video, great experience sharing and great recovery from round 1 and sharing what you learned. Sports fans and those of us who travelled the journey of making it in sports, any sports, at the professional level, have been there and know, know how it feels and know what you are going through. What we admire is seeing your journey and how you are learning from it step by step and how you are making a plan and adjustments to try and overcome the normal short comings. For those of us who have been there, we know that it is not advice you or anyone else who travels this type of journey need, what's needed is just support and sharing that we feel you have what it takes to travel the journey, and know that there are several destination that you will reach before the final one. Just recognize and reward yourself when you reach those destinations that are stopping points towards thje final destination. Destination of round recovery was reached, document it and carry it forward, it will be needed. Golf caddie is very important, no matter the interaction, you both carry that vibe for 18 holes which impacts your mental thoughts, confidence and focus, so all caddies share and carries some responsibility for and how a player plays. Thats also another destination reached on your journey, so document it and carry it forward to learn from it. Darn, my comments are always too long and wordy, apologies. Thanks for sharing and know that you have what it takes to travel this journey. Good Luck at the next event and being a Christian person as well, we will be praying for future success, just remember to call your family as soon as you land and arrive. 😜😉

[@antonioesparza9153]

You know it’s a good day when Marissa uploads a new video. Cannot wait to watch you play on Sundays at the LPGA🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@DaleReeves-c6z]

Sorry to hear about the rough week at Q school. Keep the faith in all things. God, Family, and Golf. It will all come together! Tell your mom and dad thanks for being great parents. We can't help but worry about our baby girls ❤

[@gunnernaut]

Thanks for sharing, Marissa. Always pulling for you two. Some really good advice at the end!

[@markvk3928]

I love the idea of a “day in the life” video. It will be interesting to see what things you typically do when you’re away from the course. God bless 😊

[@anthonyrichardson7543]

You are an amazing young lady! It’s incredibly hard to put yourself out there through good times and bad. Keep trusting Jesus and He will direct your journey. Thanks for sharing your experience with us.

[@jimslate504]

Marissa, I checked out your scores each round - and you should be very proud of how you recovered from your first round! Golf is so damned hard at your level. We can see there’s a lot more to you than just golf. You are so transparent and “real” that we can’t help but root for you. Alexis too. Can’t wait to see what’s next for you.

[@KeithFerguson-qk6if]

Keep walking your walk. Thank you for sharing your journey.

[@jkodot]

I really liked this video. Thank you for being transparent. I'm sure it will help others in their pursuit of a profession. Continue to put God and your faith 1st and everything will fall into place. 😊

[@rainchild100]

The last three minutes were already a record of your future path. I'm happy for you as you take more and more pressure off yourself and enjoy life.

[@lnefzger]

Wonderfully edited! Thank you for sharing your journey. It is so much more challenging than I think most weekend warriors realize. I wish you success and know that we subscribers love following your path.

[@Hanna-zr6hz]

It’s inspiring to watch how you tackle mental challenges and grow from every experience. It’s nice to see this side of you too and not only the epic golfer we see on GGG (where your talent and kind personality always shows as well)

[@vtiniall]

You are a strong character Marissa. Pro golf tournaments are going to be stressful and the long travelling, it will take it toll on you. You as you are learning to take each step at a time and learn to decompress afterwards. Also learn to enjoy and have fun while playing, it will help to limit the stress. The time with you caddie, allowed you to talk and to have fun. I know it is different to have Alexis next to you. Feed off her energy. Alexis seems to be you stress ball, in that, Alexis helps you to be calm, relaxed and knows when you need that outreached hand, like in the video for food. You have great people around you, help them help. I love the vlogs, keep them up, also a stress relief for you to take your head and mind away from the tournaments.

[@robertciesla8866]

You and Alexis keep grinding you are both great golfers and will get there. Just keep the faith.

[@Phaedrus-th7bi]

Stumbled on these videos (and the ones with your friends) a few days ago and I am bing watching. It's interesting seeing all the stuff that goes on trying to get good enough to qualify. We get this content nowhere else. Good reminder its not all glamour and big money.

[@Magpie845]

Alexis looks so pretty also!! She is so funny!!!

[@AsianMike3171]

I am very much looking forward to the day off vlog!

[@jaredkeene5666]

Hang in there Marissa! Keep believing in yourself, you have the talent and will only continue to better your game going forward. Easy to root for you and Alexis!

[@nooskids007]

Marissa Love these Vlogs .Great Honesty of how this journey is taking you 🧡

[@guitaristbiker]

Awesome person! Keep being the best you!

[@stephenbakerjr267]

God will always be there for you. Prayers for you to find yourself, and the balance to thrive both in golf, but more importantly life.

[@marissawenzler]

Thank you so much 😊

Thank your for sharing your emotions and thoughts.. Big support from France

[@larryhollingshead6743]

I was sorry to see that you didn’t shoot well in Q school but it’s good that you learned several things from this expierence. I’m so Glad to see that you mentioned Christ and would love to give advise if you’ll take it. When I’m in a slup or feeling down, I think of Jonathan in 1 & 2 Samuel where he encourages David. As my preacher friend says “everyone needs a Jonathan”. God Bless

[@larriedoliveira1175]

Was a great video , you must remember you’re now starting your journey. There will be good and bad. You will learn and you will get better, I’m sure. Keep it up. Congratulations 🎉

[@otomotom1879]

Hi Marissa! Just watched your videos and you are such a great person! Keep fighting n youll achieve your goals🙌💪😀! I'm a 13hcp and when I "don't care much abt score" I end up playing like scratch golf and the moment I realize wow I'm Even up till 7th hole, I miss some shots that I usually don't miss. Ending front nine like +5 . (Same as back nine) The point is to not caring só much through the round and just commit shot by shot according to your training. (Adding course management + where your miss shots will land etc...that you talked before) Hope this can help and cheering for ya!!😊 From Brazil Victor

[@garylofgren]

Wow my bad should have first said best of luck to you both Marissa and Lexie

[@diegosorio]

Keep it up Marissa! We will be watching you on the LPGA very soon I bet! 💪😀

Looking forward to watching you and Alexis on the Epson tour and GGG!!!

[@patsipes6561]

Fellow Big Blue here. I've been following your career for a bit. You are really good on the course and camera. I love your swing and wish you great success coming up! Good Luck!

[@Rexy14313]

I'm all the way here for no golf day! Sorry it didn't work out this year for stage 2... But the best thing about that is there's always next year, and you'll be ready for them next year!

[@micovalera]

Favorite GGG golfer. Rooting for you

[@tonylopez911]

So funny, mom and dad worried but you found great food spot, lol.

[@royklein9206]

As Stubbs said: go to your happy place. During tournaments try to imagine it's just a GGG event and be a little less careless and more happy. i know that's practically impossible but thoughts, being swingthoughts or just life stuff, always gets in the way of playing well... I'm absolutely sure you'll survive and succeed Marissa!!!

[@turnthree5617]

When I get down about my game that's when I hit the range, chipping green, and putting green. Never give in.

[@tonylopez911]

Yes Marissa GIVE YOURSELF TO GOD.

[@kellyjung283]

Don’t give up, figure it out and come back stronger next year.

[@JohnLemmon4]

Thanks for sharing this. I am guessing it was not easy to talk about your poor play. Thank you for showing the real side of golf. Rooting for you!!! Also I realized a few weeks ago that you played for Centerville. I coach for Northmont and talk a lot to coach Dalton (who is great!). Small world.

Thanks!⛳⛳⛳💥💥💥

[@marissawenzler]

Thank you SO MUCH!!

[@AsianMike3171]

I was just down in florida on a golf trip and the grain was GRAINING. i'm used to grass up north and that bermuda was diffy

[@JoeChrist-Kim]

Your parents calling the cops is kinda hilarious now that they know you’re safe 😂 I need some of whatever Alexis is on! I love how you figured out that your life and identity has to be in the Lord first. I’m a firm believer that if we won’t make Him Lord when we’re in the valley, there’s a good chance we’ll forget to make Him Lord as much as He should be, on top of the mountain. That is something every person of faith has to go through. Praise the Lord that you know what you need to do! The Bible says that if we seek the Lord w all our hearts that He will give us the desires of our hearts. He is the one that put that desire in your heart to be a champion at golf. As fun as it is to grind and work hard, that is not what is going to make our dreams come true. God has to give us the grace to perform at the highest level. Without His grace we have no shot! Be patient and wait on the Lord Marissa! It’s coming!

[@MassiveUnit31]

Your toughness is made up of equal parts persistence and experience. You don’t so much outrun your opponents as outlast and outsmart them, and the toughest opponent of all is the one inside your head. Hang in there. You will find your path.

[@kalvheps5973]

Yeah I have to agree 100% what you say at the end.I must admit that if I had a daughter and she was travelling as much as you then I’d be forever on edge.But I think you are an excellent golfer but………..it’s too much.Constant travel and constant golf isn’t giving you your own personal space.You really need a time out with a mix of people around your own age.You look so tired sometimes as though you have no energy and that’s not a good look for a pretty young lady.I really am looking forward to this none golf vlog.I think it could be very revealing on which way you need to go in your life.Start enjoying yourself.More rest and relaxation . Super vlog.Really enjoyed it.Alexis is as crazy as ever!😂( but in a good way).Thanks.👏👏👏👏👏❤

[@rickgoodrich-eg1mv]

So much work to be a pro golfer, but remember, you earned your way there. Always gonna be bad play in golf. Believe me I know. Don’t dwell on the crap. Your to good. Golf is mental, but at times let your talent take over. Ty for your vids. Love them.

[@MickeyCh00]

I've have been looking forward to another video, wondering how your golf career was going. This was another fun one to watch. Golf is tough, as we all know. And I thought that a caddy only had to show up, keep up, and shut up. Guess that is not exactly true then. 🙋‍♂

[@jabbogolf]

Jesus has a unique was of gathering us back closer and sometimes it is painful. The fact you can talk about your relationship with Him on your channel is cool. Find some “you” minutes a day, CS Lewis Legends and CS Lewis Central on YT is an awesome daily meditation . Not too long but mind adjusting for sure.I use during warm up before tournaments and traveling to play. Praying for you!🙏 Always remember; Jesus loves you, always has and He always will.

[@kimovercash2887]

You’re on a good path and will be fine.

[@heinata01]

if you don't go through tough situations you can't always deal with said situations when they come up, so give yourself some space and enjoy the game, we sure like to see you at least have fun, best of luck 👍🏼

[@JL-zl5xu]

You’ve got to believe in yourself. The only person in this world that’s gonna get you to where you want to be is you. Ups and downs are just part of the journey. Take deep breathes and step back when you get mental block, and look at the beautiful scenery around you, and appreciate where your at at that moment, and hopefully that’ll get you grounded back into breaking that 70 mark… You can do it…in my you can do it voice..lol Stay hungry and keep eating gurl!!

Golf girls do it better 😎 - best of luck on your journey!! ⛳️

[@BrettThomas-v5y]

Marissa, yes, it's good to know that Bermuda grass will affect the chips and the roll of your put, but always know that it grows to the west and setting sun. now about the mental, once you've decided on the shot, just swing...let it go. but once you struck the ball and regardless of where it ends, you have to accept it, it's out of your control and go and hit it again. there's no such thing as perfect in golf. we all have a circle of limitations, be it small or large, stay in that circle, do not try to force things to happen, this causes you circle to become smaller. just letting things happen and feel free to swing away and just deal with the outcome, your circle will become bigger all on it's own. But first and foremost, learn to laugh at yourself and HAVE FUN, then you'll learn that there is no pressure, just swing away, you have the talent and I love watching you swing 😉😉

[@Robster6480]

If it always grows to the west, how can you have different patches of grain on greens?

[@BrettThomas-v5y]

@@Robster6480 a lot of that has to do with how the greens were cut and direction of cutting

“The reason why I play golf is I’m trying to glorify God and all that He’s done in my life,” “So for me, my identity isn’t a golf score. Like Meredith told me this morning, ‘If you win this golf tournament today, if you lose this golf tournament by 10 shots, if you never win another golf tournament again,’ she goes, ‘I’m still going to love you, you’re still going to be the same person, Jesus loves you and nothing changes.’ All I’m trying to do is glorify God and that’s why I’m here and that’s why I’m in this position.” - Scottie Scheffler

Marissa, it was so nice to see and Alexis and what I have a question... Alexis seems to be very light-hearted while you were a bit quiet. I realize this were very short clips but I wish you were enjoying this, the practice rounds, the meals, Florida's gusty weather ... am I incorrect? I too have many stories for when I tried to qualify for the 1986 US Open and what I went through and I feel for you. All I can say is trying to find your way is the key to the whole experience and inevitably success. Your doing great Marissa!! Have fun and a great caddy (teammate) is essential. Thank You and I look forward to your day off video😀😀
