Paige Spiranac is widely renowned for her golf content on social media. However, the sport was not her first choice. As a young kid, she was a star gymnast who was keen on representing the USA at the Olympics. However, a series of tragic injuries to both her knee caps ended her dream.

Spiranac decided to pursue golf at the young age of 12. She was homeschooled to aid her mental health, which gave her more time to play golf. Growing up in Monument, Colorado, she exhibited extraordinary athletic talent.
