Paige Spiranac is making moves as the 2024 season ends and elevating her brand as she grows. Already, the 31-year-old model carded herself as one of the best golf influencers when she participated in the PGA Tour’s Creator Classic and finished tied for 7th despite her nerves.

But Spiranac is not letting herself be bound to just the game of golf. She won’t be playing any other sport professionally or as a content creator but she can surely help those fans.

In October, the former pro signed a multiyear partnership with SportsGrid, a betting program for all sorts of sports. Thus, she would be the face of SportsGrids for years to come after her rift with PointsBet in 2022. So, outside of her usual content, Spiranac fans can also take her suggestions for golf, basketball, or any other sport. This time it was basketball and she made a small mistake.

But she accepted it. After posting the odds for two college basketball teams and three NFL teams, Spiranac realized that she spelled Pittsburgh as Pittsburg. She jokingly posted on her Instagram story, “Yes I know how to spell Pittsburgh correctly lol I didn’t spell check before I posted. Not the first time this has happened and won’t be the last haha.”

We all get confused with certain words and Spiranac is no stranger to that.

However, the gold diva embraces self-deprecation and enjoys the moment. While she accepted it would happen again, it is not the first time Spiranac has shared an embarrassing mistake she committed.

Last year, Paige Spiraac was doing one of her partnership stints with XGolf and she was asked to present her pre-shot routine while playing simulator golf. On the first day, everything went well. The golf diva showed her routine and talked about golf. But on the second day, Spiranac made an embarrassing mistake. She narrated that story on her Instagram, and said, “It was the most embarrassing thing that ever happened to me… it was brutal.” 

What happened was as one can see every little movement on the simulator screen, as Spiranac teed up, instead of hitting it as she usually does, she cold-shanked it. She did recover from that shot but Spiranac remembered all the other times she had missed her drive. Even Caitlin Clark proved she was not immune to it. The WNBA star played the Pro-Am at the 2024 Annika Driven.

As she shot her drive, instead of moving down the fairway, the ball ended up around the fans far to the left. The crowd laughed as Clark reloaded her shot instantly as if nothing had happened. Watching her, Spiranac remembered how she had done the same quite a few times as she said, “The immediate reload is relatable.”

Spiranac is no stranger to trolling herself and she won’t probably stop that ever.
