Paige Spiranac’s rival meets ex-president

Hailey Rae Ostrom often shares her sports knowledge on her Instagram profile. And fans engage with it. While Paige Spiranac is an established brand, Ostrom is a label in the works. She is a thriving amateur golfer and holds superb control over her swings.

Ostrom recently recalled meeting ex-president Donald Trump. She said, “So, I was invited to a LIV golf tournament to play in their pro-am and it happened to be the one in New Jersey at the Trump National Golf course. I was pretty intimidated because I was there by myself. And I was around all the PGA LIV players, as well as celebrities like Caitlyn Jenner I played with that day. And president Donald Trump.”
