Amanda Balionis is certainly wearing a lot less these days amid rumors of her marriage being over.

The veteran CBS reporter took a well-deserved break during the 2024 US Open to enjoy herself, and she certainly did that when she took to her Instagram and shared several pictures of her vacation in The Hamptons.

The golf journalist shared stunning pictures from her vacation in Montauk, New York. In one picture, she is seen rocking a body-hugging black dress that showcases her incredibly toned legs. She accessorizes the look with black shades and black heels.

In the first picture, Amanda Balionis is seen posing next to a lake, while the second photo shows her with friends, all of whom have drinks in their hands.

A fourth picture had a strong message as she wore a blue jacket in the evening over her dress, which said, “It’s all god, baby baby.”

The last post was a video showing Balonis sipping a drink while lounging on a beach chair as her friends could be seen dancing in front of her.

 


Amanda Balionis has grown quite the fan base on social media as she currently boasts around 299K followers on Instagram. She was already fairly popular for her interviews in the golfing world but things quickly switched this year with rumors surrounding her name.

Amanda Balionis Becomes The Subject of Two Major Controversies in Her Personal Life

A rumor circulated earlier this year that Amanda Balionis was secretly dating Northern Irish golfer Rory McIlroy following the announcement of his divorce from his wife, Erica Stoll.

The rumor grew legs once fans noticed how they interacted with each other during interviews.

What made things worse was that Balonis was spotted not wearing her wedding ring anymore. She is married to former University of North Carolina and Baltimore Ravens quarterback and former FIU quarterbacks coach Bryn Renner.

The McIlroy rumors would finally end this month when the golfing star would reconcile with his wife, but Balonis has yet to speak on the state of her union.

Reed Sheppard Scouting Report: Top Teams Targeting Kentucky’s Young Prospect Ahead of the 2024 NBA Draft

Reed Sheppard is projected to be a potential top-five pick in the upcoming NBA draft after an outstanding freshman season at Kentucky. Despite ongoing debates about his future role in the NBA, Sheppard’s athleticism and basketball IQ have made him a favorite among many NBA teams.

Sheppard excels at finishing at the rim and hitting catch-and-shoot threes at an elite level. He has also shown the ability to attack closeouts, which could see him develop into more of a lead guard. He has gained a reputation for his quickness and agility.

“Sheppard is going to play point guard in the NBA, and he’s played some of that position with Kentucky. What will translate is his shooting and that he’s an extremely smart basketball player. He does a good job off the ball in terms of shooting the gaps and getting steals. He’s got really quick hands. Now, he doesn’t move his feet well laterally, so he may struggle there. He’s not a bad passer, either. He could be a backup point guard type of player,” an NBA executive told HoopsHype.

Defensively, Sheppard may face challenges as he gives up too many driving angles. At 6-foot-3 and 182 pounds, his relative lack of strength and limited size could make securing defensive positions difficult.

Sheppard’s offensive stats are impressive, recording 65% at the rim in 60 attempts and 45.8% on non-rim twos in 59 attempts. His excellent hand-eye coordination also allows him to generate numerous steals. He could benefit from learning from a veteran player to develop his skills as a role player.
