Balionis was hosting the 2025 Genesis Invitational as a broadcasting journalist. After the tournament got wrapped up, Balionis posted an update on Instagram. Besides sharing photos of her from the field, she praised PGA Tour pro Ludvig Aberg for acing the event as well.

"What a week. What a field. What a host. What a finish Ludvig Aberg told me he's a leaderboard watcher from start to finish and knew he had to get to -12 to get it done. He caught fire on the back nine and did exactly that. What a story of redemption after being knocked out the tournament at this course just a few weeks ago due to sickness."
