Two popular golf figures shared a playful moment when one suggested a morning track workout, sparking a fun exchange that perfectly highlighted their close friendship and shared humor. Golf Channel reporter Kira Dixon shared a quick glimpse at one of the friends’ chats on her story. The story featured a message from West, suggesting, “What are your thoughts on a track workout sat morning?” The golf reporter humorously replied to West’s attempt at tagging her along her fitness journey on her Instagram story. It captioned, “Texts from @michellewiewest … dragging me kicking and screaming into her running era,” highlighting their close relationship and vulnerability with each other.

The retired golfer added her own hilarious kick to it, writing on her story, “One thing about me, I don’t go down alone.” West implied that she wasn’t venturing out on a wellness regimen without some company.

Their lighthearted chat highlighted genuine support for each other’s journeys — from fitness goals to lifestyle changes — all wrapped in their trademark mix of motivation and playful humor. However, this is not a standalone event of their public interaction.

The duo’s on-screen and podcast chemistry shines through. In the second episode of Quiet Please! Hosted by Dixon and Mel Reid, Michelle Wie West joined as the first guest to discuss her golf career, gender comparisons, Taylor Swift’s bracelet moment, IVF, and motherhood — showcasing their genuine friendship and mutual respect.

In a December 2020 Girls N’ Golf episode, the duo discussed their professional journeys — West sharing a champion’s perspective and Dixon highlighting her USGA role. Their bond also extends to the course, seen recently at the Travelers Championship Pro-Am alongside CBS reporter Amanda Balionis.

Beyond these moments in the media together, the duo enjoys quieter yet just as sweet moments, too. For instance, the retired LPGA pro welcomed her second baby, Jagger, last year, reflecting on her struggles with infertility and IVF. Dixon commented on West’s brave Instagram post: “Love you my girl.” Acknowledging her support, West replied to the comment, writing, “Thanks for being the best support group.” This short exchange brings forward their support for each other, one West has found herself calling “best girl gang.”

Michelle Wie West, Kira Dixon, and their girl gang

In the male-dominated environment in golf, the girl gang has got each other’s backs. The five ladies – Michelle Wie West, Kira Dixon, Amanda Balionis, Hally Leadbetter, and Megan LaMothe have built a close-knit support group, called “golf’s greatest girl gang.” The group was initially brought together by Leadbetter. Their friendship has grown ever since through trips, group texts, and shared experiences. Bringing vastly unique skill sets each, the ladies navigate the world of golf through varied lenses.

“Golf is a male-dominated industry, and I wanted to build out a group of women that understood each other’s situations and could provide a support network for each other,” Hally Leadbetter explained her motive behind the group. Sure enough, the group has acted as an emotional crutch and a backbone to the ladies through their personal struggles. All five golf girls are successful in their own right, from golf clubs to mics.

Attributing to the support behind the success, Dixon remarked, “Nobody does anything successful without people around them. You can’t do anything by yourself.” On a similar note, West revealed the glue for the group: “We want to see each other succeed, and I think that’s what makes us really good friends.”

Without doubt, the golf girls are each other’s biggest support systems and greatest friends. From shared fitness journeys to playful exchanges, West, Dixon, and the girl gang set ideals for what friendship looks like.
