She told the New York Post: “I started my golf account as a way of tracking my own golfing progress.
“I had no intention of it ever expanding into something bigger. It has now, and I’m just sharing my progress on a wider scale, which is fantastic.
“I think that’s what people really enjoy about my account.”
Annabel was inspired to pick up golf by her dad, who played at a professional level.

Now she is making a name for herself as a golf influencer and is delighted there are female role models for young golfers to look up to, such as Spiranac who boasts almost 4million Instagram followers.
Annabel added: “My whole family plays, my dad’s a golf professional, so he taught me from a young age.
"I think I picked up a club probably at age two. I used to have the mini plastic ones, and I had a cut down wooden one, which I still have, which is quite sweet.
"I think there are some amazing golf figures out there that are really sharing kind of women’s perspective on golf, and that’s amazing to have more female role models out there for other girls wanting to take up golf."
