Paige Spiranac shared with her fans a new challenge associated with golf, in which she failed miserably. As usual, she used her Instagram account, which currently has over 4 million followers.

The new challenge taken on by Paige Spiranac was to hit the ball with a club designed for babies. It is a plastic club with such small dimensions that Spiranac practically had to bend down to make the swing.

Paige Spiranac accompanied her post with the following text:

“Hitting baby clubs is hard lol”

However, the most hilarious moment was Paige Spiranac not being able to execute her swing with the usual quality. With her first swing, she couldn’t even make contact with the ball, while with the second she just chunked it, leaving it a few feet from the tee.

The video posted by Paige Spiranac has been reposted by several accounts on all social networks. As a frame of reference, the post from the X (formerly Twitter) account NUCLR GOLF received over 35,000 views in one hour.

Spiranac is a former professional golfer who currently enjoys a successful career, creating golf-related content for social media. She recently shared on her X account that she currently holds a +3.4 handicap, which places her in a high level among amateur players.

Paige Spiranac’s golf career at a glance
Spiranac didn’t start her athletic career in golf, but in artistic gymnastics. She was among the top-ranked junior gymnasts in the United States and dreamed of making it to the Olympics.

However, her dream was dashed after she injured both kneecaps. Unable to continue her gymnastics career, she looked for a new sport to focus her attention on, and found golf. Spiranac took up golf relatively late (at age 12), but made rapid progress.

Before she was 18, she was already one of Colorado’s top players and ranked in the Top 25 in the world amateur rankings. This earned her a scholarship to play golf at the University of Arizona.

There she studied for a year, after which she transferred to San Diego State University, with whom she won the 2014 Mountain West Conference Championship for the first time in program history.

After graduating from college, Spiranac pursued a career in professional golf. She began playing on the Cactus Tour, where she had some burnt finishes, including a win.

Spiranac also had a few starts in Europe. There she made the cut at the 2016 Women’s Scottish Open (T58). However, she was unsuccessful in her only attempt to reach the LPGA Tour and decided to quit professional golf.

By then, Spiranac had a solid social media following, primarily on Instgram, and decided to direct her career on her current path.
