"Golf is my therapy, but also the reason I need therapy"- Paige Spiranac explains her 'love hate' relationship with golf
Paige Spiranac often indulges in question-and-answer (Q&A) sessions with her more than 4 million followers on Instagram. During one such session recently, Spiranac was asked about the aspect of golf that she "loves the most".
Spiranac assured that "there is nothing more rewarding than a good round of golf". Explaining her "love-hate relationship" with the sport, she said:
"Golf is my therapy, but also the reason I need therapy. It's a real love-hate relationship...You can be very frustrated at every level at you are at. But there's nothing more rewarding than a good round of golf, or hitting that good golf shot, or pulling that shot off. It just keeps you comming back day in and day out..."
Answering a question about her favorite golf influencers, Spiranac revealed that she likes Bryson DeChambeau on the men's side and Cailyn Henderson on the women's side. Spiranac gave them both the highest compliments on their content.
Spiranac also gave some golf advice. When asked about the best set of clubs for a beginning golfer, she replied that the focus should not be on buying a full set of clubs in the beginning. According to her, a driver, a 7-iron, a wedge and a putter are sufficient for a beginner.
Paige Spiranac announces her annual calendar
During her Q&A, Paige Spiranac also announced the release of her annual calendar in the first week of November. She has been producing this calendar for several years, featuring her golf-inspired images.

Spiranac also said that 2024 is her "favorite year," as it's the first time in her career that she's been asked what she wanted to do. She said:
"I think that 2024 has been my most favorite year yet, and it's the happiest I have ever been by far, personally and also professionally. I have made a ton of really big changes professionally and I had to step back and restructure. Really look at what I want this to be for me. It was the first time in my career where I really got to ask the question, 'What do you wanna do, and why do you wanna do it?'"
Spiranac also offered her opinion on which brand of clubs to use, stating that each player should use the product that best suits their needs and characteristics.
