Paige Spiranac, one of golf’s most recognizable modern personalities, is ready to give the sport another chance — but this time, on her own terms. After enduring what she has described as a “bad spell” with golf — a mix of struggles on the course, harsh public scrutiny, and the relentless pressure that comes with being both an athlete and an influencer — Spiranac is embarking on a series of new projects that she hopes will renew her relationship with the game that once made her feel so conflicted.
The former pro turned media star first rose to fame not just for her talent but also for her unapologetically bold presence online. While Spiranac never shied away from embracing her femininity — something that made her a polarizing figure in the golf world — the constant backlash and judgment often overshadowed her genuine love for the sport. Over the past few years, she’s spoken openly about the toll this took on her mental health and her game. At one point, she admitted she fell out of love with golf entirely.
But time away, reflection, and a loyal fan base have given Spiranac fresh perspective. Now, instead of chasing the traditional path back into professional competition, she’s choosing to redefine what golf means to her — and to millions who follow her every move.
One of her upcoming projects is an innovative content series that blends instruction with entertainment. Spiranac plans to travel to iconic courses, tackle fun golf challenges, and share unfiltered stories from her playing days. For many young golfers, especially women who have felt excluded by golf’s sometimes stuffy traditions, her candid approach is a breath of fresh air.
In addition, Spiranac has hinted at launching a community-focused platform — part digital clubhouse, part coaching hub — where golf enthusiasts of all skill levels can connect without fear of judgment. She wants to strip away the elitism that has long been associated with the sport and instead promote golf as a game for everyone, regardless of background, body type, or bank balance.
There’s also a philanthropic side to Spiranac’s comeback plan. She has teased collaborations with charities aimed at making golf more accessible to girls and underserved communities. Having faced the darker side of golf culture herself — from online trolls to outdated double standards — Spiranac says she wants to be a voice for positive change, using her own platform to champion inclusivity and mental health awareness.
While it’s clear that Spiranac’s return won’t be about chasing trophies or tour titles, her new ventures may prove just as significant for the game’s evolution. Social media has given her a unique power: she reaches audiences that traditional golf broadcasts rarely touch, and she does it with an authenticity that resonates. If her projects succeed, she could help reshape golf’s image for a new generation — one that values fun, honesty, and community as much as technical skill.
Of course, as with anything Spiranac does, there will be critics. Her style — part athlete, part influencer, part provocateur — still ruffles feathers among some purists who believe golf should stick to its old codes. But Spiranac seems unfazed. In her own words, she’s no longer interested in seeking approval from people determined not to give it.
What she wants, instead, is to enjoy the game again, on her own terms, and help others do the same. If that means pairing trick shots with unfiltered commentary or mixing swing tips with lifestyle advice, so be it. For Paige Spiranac, the goal is no longer just to play golf — it’s to love it again, flaws and all.
For a sport sometimes stuck in tradition, Spiranac’s next chapter could be exactly what golf needs: a reminder that the game is supposed to be fun, and that sometimes, the best way to fix a bad spell is to swing freely, laugh l
oudly, and keep playing.
