But every time she shared her feelings, people misunderstood her. She said, “I came off as if I was having this victim mentality. And even to this day, people say that I used to play the victim or I play the victim.” People called her out for playing the victim and collecting sympathy. And that is why she chose to focus on her golf content instead. But still, despite not posting anti-bullying content today, she always takes a stand for the right cause.

Was it the first time Spiranac suffered bullying?
Online trolling was not the first time she suffered trauma. Spiranac suffered during her childhood too. Earlier, she wasn’t equipped to handle all the trolling and negativity. The 2018 SI swimsuit model was in her early 20s when she used to receive enormous amount of negative comments. “And it took a toll on me mentally,” said Spiranac. However, she believes she was trying to deal with all the hate she was getting. The second most influential female golf personality said, “I don’t think any human beings should be able to handle that, and they’re not equipped to be able to handle it.”
