Social Media Star Gets First Professional Win

Paige Spiranac is more than a pretty face. If you’ve paid attention to her social media posts over the past year, you could always tell that the Instagram sensation had serious game. She proved that once again this week by claiming her first professional win in a Cactus Tour event at Orange Tree Country Club in Scottsdale, Ariz.

Spiranac shot rounds of 71-74-68 on the par-72 layout to defeat Hannah O’Sullivan, the top-ranked amateur in the world, according to GolfDigest.com. Spiranac seems to be finding her footing professionally and making friends on Tour in the process.

 

Had the professional lead for the past few days and unfortunately fell to 2nd today. Couldn’t have lost to a better person. Huge congratulations to @_paige.renee for shooting lights out today and taking her first professional win!!! Talk about a beautiful girl inside and out with great morals.
