“I finished pretty well,” she said. “Honestly, I thought if I was going to miss my flight, I was wanting to go to the Taylor Swift concert that night, and I ended up winning, so that was better than going to a Taylor Swift concert, I guess.” The famous American singing sensation is currently on tour and had a concert in Houston, TX on Sunday, the same day when Vu won the prestigious event. However, achieving such a huge milestone would have been any day better for the golf star than dancing all night in a concert.
