Paige Spiranac has been pumping out content left and right, with one of her latest videos going viral. She made a hole-in-one recently and happened to be filming while it occurred. She then posted it to X, formerly Twitter, and created a YouTube video showcasing her incredible shot.
Of course, the haters couldn’t help themselves, hinting at disbelief toward the Hole in 1 being legitimate.
The prompted the world’s largest golf influencer to respond.
“A bunch of comments calling my hole-in-one fake. It’s real and spectacular,” Spiranac wrote. “But jokes aside, anyone in the golf industry knows our careers would be over if we ever faked a hole-in-one video. No one would ever be dumb enough to risk that. We take pride in showing genuine reactions. The good and bad.”
She isn’t wrong. Why would someone fake a video like this when their entire career rides on it? The video on YouTube is around 16 minutes, and her reaction absolutely feels genuine.
Spiranac brought in PGA professional Gavin Parker to join and help her do a Jet Fuel challenge, an energy drink she promotes.
She had 50 balls to make a hole-in-one. Throughout the video, she and Parker talked about strategy and what club worked for her on the hole they were taking on.
After 10 balls, Parker was impressed.
“Let me tell y’all something: she didn’t miss the green, which is crazy,” Parker said. “Ladies and Gentlemen, I’m a PGA member. I’ve been teaching golf for like 14 years. This girl can play. Let me tell you something — dialed in, aim’s great, low ball flight, very piercing… Keep it going.”
It took her to the last 10 balls, but she got it done.
Spiranac continues to own her brand and remain successful. The former professional golfer has built a social empire through hard work and persistence.
Haters just need to let her appreciate the hole-in-one, even if it isn’t in a traditional sense, and stop being rude. A fun, light-hearted video should be enjoyed. Spiranac loves to troll the haters, so that’s all she did. They may tease her, but at the end of the day, they’re only giving her a bigger platform.
