She also performed her debut song! Popular golfer Nana Suganuma shows off her impressive performance in the “Idol Challenge

With the start of the ’26 golf season approaching, a popular pro took on the challenge of “playing two sports”. Here is an on-the-spot report on the event “Suganuma Nanani Numaeru? which was hosted by Nana Suganuma, who took on the challenge of becoming an idol.

The live performance lasted more than 3 hours.

Everyone, are you having fun?　Are you having fun?

With one word, the Airship Theater in Ueno, Tokyo, instantly became a “live venue. Nana Suganuma, the self-proclaimed “idol” of the women’s professional golf world, held a fan meeting “Suganuma Nanani Numatteiru? was held. The event, which is a regular off-season event, was held for the third time, and the tickets were sold out with a capacity of 500 people.

When the curtain rose, the audience was on their feet. Fans responded to the choreography, perfectly matched the chants, and cheered with fans holding up fans. The fans were all cheering for the singer: “She’s super cute!　Nana-chan! The “cheers” that would never echo on a golf course bounced off the ceiling of the theater.

Suganuma, dressed in white, sang more than 10 songs, including “Flying Get” and “Heavy Rotation” from AKB48. She also created the stage with a dizzying array of costume changes, including a military look and a ninja look. During “Ninjari Banban,” they even threw “shuriken” into the audience, which caused the audience to laugh out loud.

The stage was filled with talks, quizzes, and other audience-participation projects, and the performance lasted more than three hours. The performer himself laughed during the performance, saying, “There’s so much going on that I’m running out of time.

The songs as well as the contents that we will enjoy with you will be very exciting, so please don’t fall asleep.

As the air heated up like at a festival, the climax of the show came during the encore, when the band announced that they would be making their CD debut with their debut song “Kimi no Messiah ni Naritate! which will be released on February 18, and continued with the first performance of a new song. The audience’s voltage reached the highest level at once. The song is, as the singer herself says, “a really cute idol song. There she was, the “idol Suganuma,” with her sharp dance moves and royal sparkle.

Suganuma said that she had been working on her voice training for more than half a year for this day.

I was really happy when I heard about my CD debut,” she said. It was one of the things I wanted to do, so I was happy. I asked them to do everything for me, including the costumes. I asked them to learn the choreography, and we talked about dancing together.

Singing is not the end of the story. She is picturing in her mind that she wants to create a circle of live performance by singing, dancing, and involving the audience. However, behind the glamorous stage, she is not hiding her weakness. She revealed during a talk show that she had a dream in which there were only four people in the audience (laugh), which drew laughter, but she did not hide the fact that she was nervous because the fanmeet is an annual event and the only stage on which she can call herself an “idol.

Training in the morning and performing live in the afternoon

Even so, toward the end of the show, Suganuma spoke with a serious expression on his face.

I know that by calling myself an idol in this way, I may be slammed by the anti-golfers, and I know that my supporters may have a hard time. But I love golf and I hate to lose. As a professional golfer, I will continue to play as hard as I can.

The “two-faced” style is not a decoration to stand out. It is my way of life and my choice to compete in the world of competition. I want to be like the sun for everyone. I will do my best in the tournament with the goal of holding it again next year,” he concluded, promising to meet his fans again.

In an interview with the audience after the show, he reflected on the intense day and said, “It was a very fun day, and I am really glad that I did it. This was the third time for the event, and he said, “Every year, I enjoy myself more and more with everyone. The number of songs has increased, and I have also done a little voice training, so my voice has become less hoarse.

He also had some specific words for the ’26 season: “The hostess competition, of course, is a big deal.

Of course I want to play in the hostess tournaments, but I also want to play one match at a time and qualify so that I can repay my fans. I would also like to improve my putting stats.

However, hats off to the women’s golf world for preparing such a complete live performance. On this day, after training in the morning, she arrived at the venue at 10:00. The fan meet started at 3 pm and ended at 6:30 pm. The day was busy with media support afterwards.

The excitement of the audience was at its peak on the night of the performance of the new song. She said with a smile, “I got a lot of energy and courage,” but perhaps it was the audience who were more energized. The tour will start in March. I’m having so much fun!

There were many fans who came to the concert for the first time today, and those who were “swamped,” as the title of the fanmeet implies, could not take their eyes off them. Suganuma is sure to be the talk of the town for the next 26 years.
