Wyndham Clark has become the new icon of the golf world with his phenomenal $3.6 million victory. A course that many experienced golfers fell prey to was undeniably tamed by the American golfer. Following his victory, numerous emotional moments were captured on the greens. This included the passionate words of Clark, the raw emotions of his caddie John, the beautiful gesture from Rickie Fowler, and more.

Adding to the list, Paige Spiranac also chimed in with her words of appreciation. Her statement, however, featured a young Clark and revealed exclusive information about the two. Unfortunately, the mighty revelation was not received well by many fans, who instantly went after the golf beauty!

Paige Spiranac discloses her ties with the 2023 US Open winner

If there is one term that can describe Wyndham Clark’s 2023 season, it is late bloom. He turned professional in 2017, but only this year did the world get to witness the extraordinary skills that the golfer possesses, all thanks to his two big wins in 2023!

First, it was the Wells Fargo Championship, where he comfortably finished the game at -19. The second, of course, was his recent massive triumph at the year’s third golf major. There is no doubt about the fact that Clark’s performance at LACC was exceptional. The golf diva, Spiranac, also seemed to think along similar lines.

Appreciating the illustrious victory, the social media icon shared a personal story on Twitter. She wrote, “Wyndham Clark and I grew up playing junior golf together in Colorado.” The former golfer added that everyone knew there was something special about Clark and that he would make a big name for himself. “Now he’s a major winner! Very cool moment.” Exactly! The win at the North Course evidently portrays Clark as a reservoir of talent. One that just needed a chance to let go.

Through his brilliant putting and smart driving, he proved that he belongs on the big stages like the US Open. Though it appears that Spiranac’s intention behind the tweet was just to add a personal touch, it provoked mayhem in the golf community. Fans from all across the golf world flocked to the comment section.

Before the major tournament, Paige Spiranac had mentioned a few names she believed would perform well on the greens. Alas, most of them struggled to execute their plans well at the LACC. Not Wyndham Clark, though! He outperformed the rest of the golfers. Even Spiranac appreciated his victory.

Usually, the fan-favorite Spiranac receives a call from the golf community. One fan, in particular, believed that the social media icon was trying to steal Clark’s thunder. He expressed his opinion through a meme.

The Instagram model replied to his comment and cleared the air about her intentions. She said, “I was adding a personal note to show how cool it is to watch someone be successful at every step of their career and how he was always a stand out player even back at age 13.” However, some of the viewers were still skeptical of the golf influencer’s intentions. In accordance with this, they tweeted:

Despite the negative reaction, her appreciation of the golfer’s talent drew a couple of acknowledgments from the fans as well.

Additionally, the fans chimed in with good wishes for the golfer on his first major triumph. They commented:

Meanwhile, some of the golf enthusiasts could not help but humorously put forth their inputs:

Ultimately, the game is bigger than the golfer. The US Open provided Wyndham Clark with a chance, and he grabbed the opportunity with both hands.
