LEAVING THE PUTTS TO HIM –

July 21, 2024 – Brittany Horschel shares the same passion for golf, and the two have even made history playing together in a World Tour event. Brittany’s impact goes beyond golf as she has been open about her battle with alcoholism.

As Billy continues playing on the PGA Tour … Brittany uses her online presence to encourage others who may be battling with something similar. Brittany has been sober for more than eight years and runs a website called “The Sober Modern Mom.” Billy’s wife uses the site to post reflections on her journey and attempts to offer hope to others.

“My drinking days were normal A LOT. My drinking was not always at the rock bottom stage. For years it was just there,” Brittany wrote in a May 21, 2023, post titled, “7 Years.” “Wine at night, cocktails at games, drinks at concerts, day drinking fun, excuses, celebrations, good days, bad days, you know how it goes. It looked a lot like a ‘normal day’ in society.

“I looked happy, heck I was happy. Until I wasn’t. When was the turn? I couldn’t tell you, but it morphed into an uncontrollable downward spiral,” Brittany continued. “Slowly, I came became more and more depressed, my anxiety grew, my body & face changed and then, before I knew it, I was someone I didn’t recognize. The alcohol ate away at my body and soul, crushed my confidence, and told me lies.”
