Amanda Balionis dons a blue bikini as she enjoys "summer vibes" in the pool

Summer is here, and CBS Sports reporter Amanda Balionis is all for it. She shared some footage of herself enjoying her time in a pool while donning a stylish blue swimsuit.

Before Balionis joined CBS Sports, she worked as an in-house golf reporter and host for the PGA Tour from 2011 to 2017. She took up a part-time role with the American network CBS Sports in 2017 and has been with the organization since then. She also doubles as a social media influencer with over 350,000 followers on Instagram.

The 38-year-old golf reporter recently spent some time with her close friend Cosette Chaput, who is also the CEO and co-founder of a women’s sports talent management firm. The two ladies hung out in a pool, and Chaput shared a video of Balionis lying down in a dog-shaped floater while wearing a blue two-piece swimsuit. She captioned the post:

“@balionis. New @puppiesandgolf collab idea unlocked

Amanda Balionis then reposted the video on her Instagram story with the caption:

“The only summer vibes I’m here for

The CBS Sports reporter, who was clearly having a good time in the pool, styled the blue swimsuit with a sun hat and a pair of sunglasses. When she realized Chaput was recording her, she rose the can of soda she had in her hand and smiled at the camera.
