Paige Spiranac gets real about her professional career

She spoke about her golf game while speaking about the art of hitting a draw or a fade in golf. Paige said, “So I naturally also draw the golf ball. But it was hard for me to play competitively because I had the yips and so naturally I want to draw it but I had a two-way miss going. And I think that is the problem.”

She added, “It’s like when you are struggling with your game, you can still play a cut when you are struggling with your game and you’re hooking it. Good luck because you’re going to be screwed because you have that two-way mass and you can slice it and you can play that slice and it just kind of gonna land soft.”

Why did Spiranac quit playing as a professional?

The 29-year-old professional was among the rising stars in golf. Spiranac even managed to pick up her first win as a professional in 2015. In June of that year, she won an event on the Cactus Tour at the Orange Tree Country Club by carding a final round of 68. As a result, she defeated Hannah O’Sullivan, the World’s Number One amateur at that time.

However, after her win, things started to go downhill for Paige in 2016. She could not secure her card for the LPGA Tour as she did not make it through the qualifying school. Moreover, at the 2016 Omega Dubai Ladies Classic, Spiranac revealed the amount of cyberbullying she received and broke down in tears during a press conference while telling the same. Furthermore, with all the factors adding up, she announced her retirement from professional golf in December 2016.
