Although she is not on the course, Paige Spiranac is certainly one of the most successful women in golf. Perhaps, had it not been for her supportive family, especially her mother, who stood by her through thick and thin, Spiranac may not have reached these heights. Yet despite that love and support, she once showcased quite a harsh side to the former golfer. And all over the failure of a trivial test!
Spiranac’s mother gets harsh
Recently, the golf beauty sat down with Samantha Marks, her co-host on the podcast, Playing a Round with Paige Renee. On it, the two got to reminiscing about the past, back to when they were teenagers and trying to get their driver’s licenses. And that’s when the ex-pro golfer dropped the truth bomb. “I failed my driver’s test the first time—well, the written test,” she said.

Thinking about the ever-successful social media star failing at something of course isn’t easy, but she is human after all! But after the writing test, things got even trickier for the blonde model. Her supportive mother turned on her, adding even more stress to the already-pressured situation. “My mom was like, I’m going to kill you if you fail the driving portion of it,” she said.
Already under pressure, Spiranac’s younger self had headed to pass her driving test in the first go. And to make things tougher, she was doing it in her “mom’s minivan”! “It’s a bow. I mean, this thing is huge,” she stated. Of course, this wasn’t ideal for the test, especially when it came to the “three-point turn.”

Fortunately for the stunning influencer, the fates smiled upon her that day at the test. The person conducting her test felt sorry for her for having to do it in that gigantic car and went easy on her. “You touch the cone, you fail,” she said. “And I lightly kissed it.” “And I look at the guy, and he’s like, It’s fine.”
The man had not seen many attempt the test in a giant car like that. “He’s like, no one usually does it in a minivan,” she said. “Like I feel bad for you.” And Spiranac is, of course, more than thankful to him. She had kept her mom happy and passed the test on her first try too. “I can’t imagine if I would have failed that too!” she said, knowing she didn’t want to disappoint her mother.
