A slo-mo video. A sarcastic comment from a fan. A resounding ‘No’. Wondering what just happened here?
Well, a peculiar instance took place at the start of July when Paige Spiranac uploaded a slow-motion video of herself driving the ball.
A follower criticized the golfing diva for her attire. However, the model, always one to stand her ground,
responded to the criticism and made sure to post more such videos as a defiant response.
And if you think that was the end, then you’re sorely wrong, for it appears she came forward with a blast from the past!
A video was shared by the 31-year-old on her X handle. It showcased Spiranac swinging the ball with her clubs while wearing bold attire.
She shared the tweet alongside the caption, “Found this video the other day! 1. I’ve been doing slow-motion swings since 2015 and 2. My swing is so much better now lol.”
Paige Spiranac, along with posting the slo-mo videos a while back, also offered tips to the female golfers. Answering the query of how to golf with large chests, she expressed how stuck and uncomfortable it feels to do the same while giving counsel: “My tip is under on the right arm and over the chest on the left at set up. Also stand a little farther away from the ball.” Although the video and the tip did rake in much support from her fans, some were critical of the golfer. But this time around, many in the community made sure to convey their support.
Paige Spiranac sends netizens into a frenzy with her latest slow-motion video
“Fyi (For Your Information), Normal attire for golf,” responded a fan after she had dished out the tip alongside the videos weeks ago. The diva simply responded with a firm “No,” dishing out the same stance that she had in 2017 when LPGA Tour’s new dress policy came out. Moreover, the 31-year-old had also written an article back then headlined, ‘The Progression of Women’s Golf Is Plunging Further Than Our Necklines.’ In it, she conveyed how the “LPGA is perpetrating the outdated stereotypes about the connection between what a woman wears and her morals.” Her stance didn’t seem to go unheard, as a couple of fans couldn’t help but positively comment on her attire; “Your outfits look great either way,” and “Perfect golf attire! Great swing!”
The community had been able to witness a unique Paige Spiranac in December 2023. She was spotted hitting the ball in a simulator while donning a leather pant, a tank top, and heels to boot. “Heels keep my swing balanced lol,” mentioned the athlete while sharing the video as a tweet on her X handle. Now, although the video shared recently saw her swinging the club while barefoot, it didn’t seem to affect her technique one bit. Many of her followers agreed as they responded, “Your present swing is more compact than in 2015. Less body movement. Still has some of the same coil/recoil to it, but it’s a very smooth nice swing. I wish I had it,” and “Wow – Huge backswing improvement! Congrats on the hard work.”
The blonde American recently revealed her handicap on her social media handle to be an impressive +3.4, all the while proving that she is better than a scratch golfer. Many had refused to believe her back then but now, a lot of her fans didn’t shy away from expressing their admiration: “That’s still better than mine.”
The recent revelation sure did help her win more fans over to her side, following the various posts she shared on her X handle. What about you? Do you feel she has made a big improvement after watching her 9-year-old video or does she still have the same technique and skills?
