A massive online presence comes with its own set of problems. Paige Spiranac, the former professional golfer, is well aware of this. Spiranac has over 3.7 million followers on Instagram alone, being the golf personality with the most followers on social media, even more than Tiger Woods! Despite being so popular, Paige is often at the receiving end of hate and online trolling. Earlier this year, Spiranac was named Maxim’s 2022 “Sexiest Woman Alive.” But the trolls made it difficult for her to celebrate it.

Paige was bullied and called “ugly” after her win

In June, Paige opened up about her feelings after her Maxim recognition on her podcast, Playing-A-Round With Paige Renee. The golf beauty said she had suffered a lot of ups and downs since receiving the news. She said, “It’s just been highs and lows of emotion.”

Spiranac also went on to talk about what one isn’t prepared for after winning such a title. She said a huge crowd of people were out telling her why she didn’t deserve it. Paige stated, “You have hundreds of thousands of people telling you why you SHOULDN’T be the sexiest woman alive.”

She claimed that in the days that followed her being named the “Sexiest Woman Alive,” she was already insecure. Trollers online constantly shamed her for it. She explained, “So I’m already feeling a bit insecure about everything and then you have thousands of people being like ‘you’re ugly, you’re fat, you’re this, you’re that’.”

Paige Spiranac couldn’t deal with her social media

Spiranac, despite her beauty, is very humble. She could not understand how she had won the title when there were other celebrities out there who she thought deserved it more than her. “How am I named this when Angelina Jolie exists in this world?,” she wondered.

While she was already insecure about her win, trolls went on to abuse and hate on her. This made her feel worse. She said, “[I’m] wanting to be excited about [the award] but also having these emotions.”

The hate has left Spiranac very raw, and she doesn’t even want to be active on social media anymore. She explained, “People were asking ‘why aren’t you tweeting about the US Open’, and I was like, I cannot open social media right now.” The hate and abuse had gotten too much for the blonde beauty, and she no longer wanted to deal with it.
