New York City — Paige Spiranac Turns Heads at the US Open, Blending Golf Commentary with Celebrity Energy
Courtside buzz and golf talk
The US Open in New York City got an extra dose of social-media electricity when 32-year-old golf influencer Paige Spiranac made a splashy appearance. Sporting a bold black look finished off by a golden chain belt, she was photographed courtside, framed against the tournament action and clearly enjoying the atmosphere. The low-cut outfit generated plenty of online chatter, with many fans calling her the ultimate distraction from the on-court drama.
From influencer to commentator and cameo star
Known for a mix of golf instruction, personality and eye-catching moments, Spiranac brings more than just style to the scene. She has a large social footprint — about four million followers on Instagram — and is currently balancing appearances at marquee events with a role as a commentator for the Grass League, a high-stakes par 3 golf league that is drawing attention for its unique format.
While enjoying the US Open vibes she was photographed holding a glass of Dobel Tequila, which has appeared as an official event partner. Her presence at the tournament wasn’t just celebrity spotting; she used the platform to weigh in on current golf topics, sharing strong takes on recent selections, players and performances.
Hot takes and golf loyalties
Spiranac didn’t shy away from controversy. She publicly criticized the decision by one prominent player-turned-captain not to select himself for a major team event and made it clear she felt that player should have been part of the squad. Her comments also included praise for Tommy Fleetwood after his breakthrough win at the Tour Championship — a milestone that marked his first title on the PGA Tour.
Beyond cheering for peers, she defended another top player who faced media scrutiny after a disappointing showing at a U.S. Open, arguing for more understanding around media avoidance and what players endure during slumps. Those remarks landed in fans’ feeds and added fuel to the lively social conversations around the tournament.
Film cameo and crossover appeal
Spiranac’s crossover into entertainment also keeps her in the spotlight. She popped up in a small cameo alongside a well-known comedian in the recent Netflix sequel to a beloved golf-comedy, a film that also features top players and former stars in cameo roles. These appearances help explain why she’s a magnet for cameras at sporting events — she straddles both the golf world and pop culture.
