When Paige Spiranac shared a sun-drenched snap showing off her bold tan lines, the internet did what it always does-exploded with opinions, praise, and a few inevitable jokes. The golf influencer, who’s no stranger to blending athleticism with bold fashion choices.
But while fans were busy debating golf dress codes and SPF recommendations, there was something bigger brewing behind that viral moment.
That was annoying! Paige Spiranac falls victim to the wind and has difficulty on the golf course
Spiranac, 31, recently opened up about a serious health scare that sidelined her for nearly three weeks. In a candid YouTube video, she revealed how a misdiagnosis left her physically drained and emotionally rattled, throwing her content schedule-and her confidence-into disarray.
A tough month, a bold pivot, and a return to the spotlight
“I felt off and couldn’t explain why,” she said. “It was frustrating and honestly a little scary.” The situation left her unable to practice, shoot content, or keep up with her usual workload-and it had her reevaluating her entire approach to golf and media.
That reflection has sparked what could be a career-defining shift. In a recent Golf Digest interview, Spiranac hinted that 2025 might be her last year playing competitively. But that doesn’t mean she’s slowing down. With a massive online following and brand partnerships under her belt, she’s aiming to pivot from athlete to full-on media mogul.
First up on the new path? A return to competition at the 2025 Creator Classic, hosted at Philly Cricket and sponsored by YouTube. Spiranac will join other digital-first golf personalities in an event that blends sport with entertainment-and gives her a platform to reconnect with fans.
It’s not just about swinging clubs anymore. Whether she’s showing off risky tan lines or teasing major life changes, Paige Spiranac is turning golf into something personal, dynamic, and impossible to ignore.
And for her millions of fans, that might be the real reason to keep watching.

The Knicks won the NBA Cup without a hero, and that should frighten the league
LAS VEGAS — Each time the New York Knicks needed a problem solved, no matter how mundane or complex the on-court task was deemed to be, the question and answer was Mitchell Robinson.His five offensive rebounds in the span of 90 seconds provided the fulcrum of a pivotal three-minute, 16-2 run that gave New York a fourth-quarter lead they would never surrender, but Robinson’s commitment to crashing the glass — against a team that relished a physical bout down low — proved pivotal on one of the game’s biggest stages. Robinson played just 18 minutes but snagged 15 total rebounds — 10 of them being offensive — in a game where the Knicks scored 32 second-chance points from 23 added opportunities.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisement“Tonight showed why it’s important to create extra possessions,” Robinson, donning a cup champions T-shirt, told Yahoo Sports following the […]

Mekies vows to maintain aggressive Red Bull approach in post-Horner era
Red Bull boss Laurent Mekies said his team will push Formula 1's rules "to the limit and sometimes beyond" as he insisted the Milton Keynes squad will remain aggressive under his leadership.Mekies made an impressive start to his tenure after replacing Christian Horner in July, overseeing an upturn in results that enabled Max Verstappen to come within two points of pulling off a historic title battle comeback. Under Horner, who had been in charge of the team since it joined the grid in 2005, Red Bull developed a reputation for particularly fierce competitiveness, while the Brit himself was engaged in several feuds with rival team bosses.
