Who is Paige Spiranac, TikTok star and ‘golf’s glamour girl’? The former pro athlete starred on Hanna and Haley Cavinder’s YouTube channel, has written a kids book, and happily silences the ‘haters’
- Spiranac is known for posting provocative pictures of herself playing golf on Instagram, and she’s gone viral by starring on the covers of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition and Golf Digest
- The social media sensation was previously married to trainer Steven Tinoco, runs a podcast called Playing a Round, and shares her golfing tips on her YouTube channel
Who would have thought golfing could look so glam?
Paige Spiranac, the “glamour model” who’s been setting social media alight with her pose-y golf-related posts in recent months, appears to be leading the charge for a trendier take on the sport – at least, when it comes to Instagram.
But not everyone is on board. The golf influencer is known for taking, erm, provocative pics of herself and often faces a backlash for her choice of attire.
In one recent Instagram Q&A, the social media star clapped back at netizens when they asked her if she’d ever undergone breast augmentation surgery, per Page Six. “No, because they’ve actually gotten a lot bigger. So I can see a lot of people being confused,” she said, before adding, “It’s because I’ve gained weight, but I can see why people question it and are confused sometimes … the human body is a magical thing.”
So who exactly is she, and does she swing a mean club or is it just for the ‘gram? (Hint: she’s actually very good!)
Paige Spiranac comes from a sporting family
