Paige Spiranac, golf’s biggest influencer and no stranger to controversy, is once again swinging back—this time at critics who took issue with her latest golf course outfit, which she herself considered “conservative.”
Over the weekend, Spiranac visited the range and shared her day via Instagram, donning a tight, one-piece athletic outfit. Alongside a nostalgic caption—"I hit my very first golf ball on this range and all these years later it’s still one of my favorite places"—she posted several snaps from her visit.
But instead of focusing on her game, some followers zeroed in on her wardrobe.
🗣️ “People Are So Mad About This Outfit”
In a now-expired Instagram Story, Spiranac expressed genuine surprise at the backlash.
“People are so mad about this outfit,” she wrote. “The funny part is I really thought it was one of my more conservative looks.”
For the record, it wasn’t a crop top or miniskirt—just a fitted, sporty one-piece. But the criticism proves that no matter what she wears, Spiranac continues to be scrutinized.
🎯 Paige’s Perspective: Style Meets Comfort
Spiranac has long defended her outfit choices. In a September 2023 Sports Illustrated interview, she explained how her fashion sense is rooted in practicality.
“I was a gymnast before I switched into golf... I was so comfortable wearing spandex and very little of it,” she said.
“When I switched into golf, we were struggling financially… I wore what was in my closet, which was workout clothes.”
It’s less about making a statement and more about wearing what works—and what’s accessible.
⚖️ Calling Out the Double Standards
In July 2023, Spiranac publicly addressed the hypocrisy she sees in the online world. Referencing a viral video of two shirtless baseball players, she noted the lack of outrage aimed at them compared to the criticism she faces.
“Not one comment calling them attention whores or sluts,” she wrote on X. “But those same women harshly judge me. The hypocrisy lol.”
📱 Still Swinging Strong
Despite the noise, Spiranac’s following continues to soar—boasting over 4 million followers on Instagram and another 1.6 million on TikTok. Her mix of golf, fashion, and unfiltered commentary continues to inspire fans while sparking conversation about gender norms in sports.
💬 Final Thought: Confidence on Her Terms
Paige Spiranac isn't asking for permission to wear what she wants—she's just living her truth and redefining what golf can look like. And whether you love her style or not, she’s here to stay—unapologetically Paige.
