The former golfer Paige Spiranac has come a long way since she quit professional golf. She earned over 11 million followers online and became a brand ambassador of PointsBet Sportsbook. And according to her latest Twitter post, she just added another feather to her accomplishment hat. The golf queen recently interviewed the former Dallas Cowboys legend, Emmitt Smith, making fans go frenzy.
Not a bad day when you get to interview legend @EmmittSmith22🏈 He said it’s more nerve wracking hitting a shot at hole 16 at the @WMPhoenixOpen than playing in the Super Bowl! pic.twitter.com/CDrQTPOva0

She could not hold herself back and expressed her excitement in a tweet. The internet queen wrote, “Not a bad day when you get to interview legend @EmmittSmith22.” Her tweet further read, “He said it’s more nerve wracking hitting a shot at hole 16 at the @WMPhoenixOpen than playing in the Super Bowl!” However, now the question arises, was interviewing him a significant accomplishment for Spiranac? Did fans enjoy the picture? What did they think of it?
Did the golf world appreciate Paige Spiranac interviewing the football legend?
At the beginning of season 2023, Spiranac gave the best gift to her followers. Her fans are more than happy for the subscription-based site with access to exclusive content. She proved that she could conquer every possible area if she decided. Although interviewing was something she did not do before, she ticked it off her list too. After the 2018 SI swimsuit model posted the tweet, fans bombarded the comment section with an appreciation for Spiranac.

Fans acknowledged that it was good for her to achieve another milestone in her career. She has already taken over social media platforms and is now taking over the reporting field. However, she was not the only center of discussion but Smith’s words too. Many sports enthusiasts dropped their views and agreed with what Smith said about hitting a shot. He compared golf shots with Super Bowl, and people went with the flow of his words.
Love that dude. He’s a winner. Paige ain’t bad either. 🐊❤️

Moreover, one user even pointed out what could be the reason for him to face difficulty. He said, “Well when he played in the Super Bowl, he was doing something he was innately GREAT at doing – running a football. Hitting a wedge/9 iron in front of all those drunken fans isn’t as easy for him.” And there were many more comments with different views. Notably, the lawn in the background was also the talk of the town.
Dear Lord, I need my lawn in the back to look like this 🙏

Can totally relate. Played in a pro am once. Greatest experience ever and yes I was so nervous. Love that golf is really the only sport you can play "inside the ropes" like the real pros.

Emmitt with the 🦅 gear.

That’s awesome all time leader for rushing yards in a career goat for running back for that

It makes sense. When he played football there were 21 other players on the field at the same time. Golf is all eyes on the same person.
