SoYeonFanMichelle, Danielle and Alison are clearly paid by MLife to do the photoshoot. We've a free market, people are free to do anything they want as long as isn't illegal.

I didn't realize this was a photo shoot (for a magazine?) at first.
Personally, I'm not a fan at all of these pix. I think the 'party hard' style attitude is pretty tacky. It's hard to imagine So Yeon or In Gee doing something like that. And saying it's just a photo shoto, what's the problem? misses the point that their own personal Instagram photos frequently go into that territory as well.
These days, athletes have to be picky about how they shape their 'brand' (ugh, hate that word). Obviously, the three ladies think this fits in with their image. That's cool, they can do what they want, but they don't get to back pedal if it gets blowback.

HappyFan You can't please all the people all the time, you need to pick and choose. Michelle Wie and Danielle Kang know what they want and choose what they do; whether it might offend a sub-section of people. They're clearly successful; judging by the size of their Instagram followers and the rate they've been increasing.

Nice job by Satoshi Kodaira at The Masters...shot 145 the first two days and will play the weekend. He has pics of several JLPGAers on his IG...Miho better keep an eye on him. Here's an interesting post he did last month...the Google translation says Ritsuko Ryu is in the market for a boyfriend. I think her prospects are good on that score. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bf-m5-6Hu4N

No limits! Except when some people react negatively on your Instagram. In which case you have to explain that there actually are limits, and that those limits were respectfully abided by.
Actually I applaud Danielle for inadvertently pulling the curtain back on this dumb little promo campaign. These are church-attending golf girls. (Or at least they claim to be) I really doubt they are getting debauched in Vegas, not in the way that these promos are implying at least.

That's cool, they can do what they want, but they don't get to back pedal if it gets blowback. Disagree. They absolutely get to back pedal, and then they get patted on the back for it. Social media is a scourge because it has given voice to the worst shut-in loser sector of society. Guarantee that anyone who complained about Danielle's silly instagram is a shut-in loser of the highest order. Yet I feel like these kids do not fully understand this reality, and so they are greatly affected even by the most meaningless, anonymous remarks.

They said that in the caption, that it was a photo shoot. I only indicated that they were having fun, before the next tournament.

Yet I feel like these kids do not fully understand this reality, and so they are greatly affected even by the most meaningless, anonymous remarks. OK, agree to disagree. My point was that all three of these women, even in the little I've seen of their social media, have posted stuff that is comparable to the 'debauchery' in the Vegas shots. So it's not like they had to have their arms twisted to do it. But when they get worried that people don't like it, they can't legitimately claim that the "photographers made them do it", cause the evidence suggests otherwise.

Is there a way to link to Instagram Stories?
Because there's video of Papa Wie playing golf.
