“I understand why women with larger chests feel stuck”: Paige Spiranac talks about the struggles women with big bodies go through
Paige Spiranac knows better than most that a golf swing is extremely technical. Every single aspect must be right to be successful. If the hands drop a few inches from where they should be, things can go awry. That's true for every piece of the golf swing, from head to toe.
The golf content creator has been analyzing her swing lately using slow-motion videos. She's trying to get a better feel for what is and is not working well with it, and she's discovered that her chest has a lot to do with her golf swing.
Per her own report, it is 'wild' how much it plays a role. She shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, her findings:
"I’ve been doing these slow mo videos and in all seriousness, it’s wild seeing what my chest has to do through the swing so my arms can clear lol I can totally understand why women with larger chests who pick up the game feel stuck and uncomfortable."
She added that her tip is under on the right arm but over the chest on the left when she sets up. Spiranac also cautioned players in her situation to stand a little further away from the ball to help alleviate any issues.
Spiranac has been on a mission to improve her golf swing. She recently enlisted the help of a golf coach who pointed a few things out. The golfer has also been working with Bryson DeChambeau to help remove some issues as well.
Paige Spiranac finally breaking through with golf swing
Paige Spiranac has not been in the pro golf game for a very long time. She had to step away and ultimately turned to content creation and has not looked back. Spiranac did recently share that she's scoring herself again and has put in a lot of work to improve her swing.
That included hiring Jonathan Yarwood, a personal golf coach, to help iron out all aspects of her game. In a since-expired Instagram story, the former LPGA Tour pro shared that her swing has never looked better despite her constantly struggling with the takeaway.
She has not said whether or not she's going to go back to professional golf. It would be a bit of a surprise since she's become so popular on social media. Paige Spiranac boasts millions of followers, so to give that up for something she quit years ago would be a stark about-face.
Nevertheless, she is committed to making the best content she can, and that includes making sure her golf game is as good as it can be from the swing onward.
