Paige Spiranac May Beat Tiger Woods in Instagram Game but the 47-Year-Old Still Rules the American Hearts, as Per Reports

Legendary golfer Tiger Woods is arguably the most popular golf player to date. His impressive win record and on-field charisma boost his popularity further. However, his popularity has a worthy challenger in the form of golf influencer Paige Spiranac. While the 30-year-old may not have an impressive win record, she did surpass Woods in one segment.

Tiger Woods currently has 3.3 million followers on Instagram. But Paige Spiranac currently boasts close to 4 million followers. This data may show that the female golf influencer has surpassed Woods in terms of online popularity. But some recent reports have painted another picture.

Yes, this may come as a shock to Spiranac’s Instagram followers, but the 82-time PGA Tour winner is still the most popular golfer in the US. According to a recent report analysis, the golf players who were most frequently searched on Google throughout the US in 2023, Tiger Woods emerged on top.

However, Paige Spiranac emerged as number two in popularity. She was the most searched golf player on Google in the states of Alaska, Arkansas, Wisconsin, and Wyoming. Furthermore, Keegan Bradley was the most searched in Vermont, Rickie Fowler in Oklahoma, Tom Hoge in North Dakota, and Tony Finau in Utah. Tiger Woods had a landslide victory in the rest of the states.

But some fans have raised a question about this report. Some deem Paige Spiranac not to be on this list as she is not actively playing any events. However, many have come forward to defend her and stated she deserves to be there due to the influence she has on golf fans. Well, sure the golf diva has more followers on Instagram than the golf great, but just like every golf lover, she is also a diehard Woods fan!

On the internet, Spiranac and Woods are duking it out for being the most popular. But on the other hand, the golf diva also fangirls over the 47-year-old.
