If there's one thing golf influencer Paige Spiranic has made clear, it's that she truly does love the game. She often offers tips and advice on her social media channels — so there's no doubting her passion.
But she admittedly prefers all that to actually competing in tournaments or one-on-one matches.

"There are two types of people in this world: people who love to practice and the people who love to play and compete. I am in that first group," Spiranic said on her Instagram stories, via Men's Journal. "I love practicing. There is nothing more that I enjoy than going to the range for hours and just beating golf balls, chipping, putting. I live for that, and I've always enjoyed that, and I never really enjoyed competing and playing."
Spiranac makes most of her money as an influencer. Her fans are glad that is the career path she's chosen. But she also wishes someone would pay her to golf. Or more specifically, to practice.

"If I could just make a career out of practicing, then [it's a] totally different story," she wrote. "And I know other people hate practicing and they can just turn it to a different level when they play and compete."
Of course, others are paying her just to watch golf. That's what being an influencer is, and she proved that he can watch golf and make money.
Granted, a lot of guys don't even realize Spiranac played professionally. Some likely don't even care. They just want to keep seeing pictures of her in, uh, green jackets. Or anything, really.

Spiranac has around 4 million Instagram followers and nearly 400,000 YouTube subscribers. Some of it has to do with golf and the well-deserved notoriety she gained from playing it, and playing it well.
Plenty of it has to do with what her most loyal fans wondering what they might see next.
