Jacqueline Daniel

Who are you?
I’m Jacqueline (Jac) Daniel – architect, lover of playing all sports, and low-key obsessed with cows and bulldogs.

What’s golf to you?
Golf, for me, is part sport, part therapy, and how I’ve met some of the best people in my life. The more I play, the more hooked I get. It’s impossibly hard, but one clean, crisp shot makes all the pain worth it. Nothing better.

Target handicap?
Scratch would be cool… that’s aiming high (or technically, low) considering I picked up golf during COVID. Honestly, I’d settle for losing fewer balls.

Favorite golf course?
Kukuiʻula in Kauaʻi. Beats Pebble for the musubi, the vibes, and the chickens running around the fairways. I’m also a big fan of random 9-hole gems I stumble on while travelling for work site visits.

Favorite item in your bag?
My driver… and a cold Diet Coke.

Shoutouts?
To everyone who invited me to a dream course even when I was brand new (Shawn Lee, Melo).
To the folks making golf more fun and inclusive (Bunker Club, Hiatus).
To the people who don’t call the forward tees the “ladies’ tees.” To everyone fixing their divots. And to my friends who took up golf because I swore it was fun.
