Paige Spiranac gets emotional during a press conference
Paige Spiranac was in a press conference before the Dubai Ladies Masters tournament. She was asked about the continuous trolling she faced after missing the cut at her debut performance in the same tournament the previous year. She said, “They attack not only me but my parents, my family, my friends, and you know, they say I’m a disgrace to golf. It’s really hard and I still get those comments and I still deal with it every day,”
“It’s important for people to see how much it does affect me, and the things they call me. I feel like I was raised right by my parents, and for them to attack my parents and attack what I’m doing, it’s really difficult,” she added. She also talked about her depression and said she hoped to inspire her fans to overcome cyberbullying.
