Amanda Balionis shared about what brings her 'a different kind of joy' as the sports journalist enjoys her break. Balionis was last seen in Charlotte, North Carolina executing her reporter duties at the 2025 PGA Championship.

"A solo rainy walk is another kind of joy ☺️"
"Just the best ❤️"
Enjoying her empty calendar days during her week off, Balionis also recently shared about an American podcast that helped her navigate through her people-pleasing nature.

Amanda Balionis hails Scottie Scheffler after his third major title win
As she wrapped up the coverage at the PGA Championship at Quail Hollow, the CBS reporter shared an appreciation post for the winner, Scottie Scheffler. With his latest win in Charlotte, the World No.1 now has three major wins to his credit with two Masters titles claimed in 2022 and 2024.
Amanda Balionis posted a picture alongside Scheffler and wrote a detailed caption applauding his victory. She wrote:
"World Number 1 proving once again why he firmly holds that position. After fighting a left miss for his opening nine and finding himself tied for the lead with Jon Rahm early on the back."
"Scottie once again showed his resiliency and skill to run away with his first @pgachampionship victory by five strokes. The back nine was yet another clinic with big names breathing down his neck."
The CBS reporter went on to add that at 28-years-old Scottie Scheffler continued to defy any 'ceiling' that may have existed.
Besides covering the latest major tournament, Amanda Balionis kept herself occupied with other events that took place in Charlotte during the tournament. She attended a business event hosted by the German mobile telecommunications company, T-Mobile.
Balionis was joined by former NFL tight-end Greg Olsen at the business event. She had a 'full-circle moment' as she reunited with Olsen who was the first NFL player she had interviewed back when she covered high-school football, earlier in her career.
