Paige Spiranac shares a classic meme mocking Adam Hadwin’s security incident at the RBC Canadian Open
Paige Spiranac didn't miss the opportunity to have a bit of fun when Adam Hadwin was manhandled by the security agent on the final day of the RBC Canadian Open.
Spiranac enjoys more than 870K followers on Twitter and more than 3.5 million on Instagram. She is known for her sense of humor on Twitter, which was once again on display on Monday.
For the uninitiated, Hadwin was trying to celebrate Nick Taylor's historic win at the 2023 Canadian Open with champagne when he was tackled by the security guard, who mistook him for a fan.
Spiranac shared the classic 'weekend vs. Monday' meme, where Hadwin was associated with the weekend and the security guard was tagged as the Monday.

@PaigeSpiranac There is so much going on in this picture, should be the cover of golf digest
"Great open field tackle! Noticed the interlaced fingers and the positioning of the hands as he takes down this PGA player. We just don’t know if there was a vocal expletive as Adam went airborne? Chime in if anyone was close enough to hear…"

"that's what I call Great Security. Walmart should hire that guard and put him in charge of Security - nation wide."

Paige Spiranac picks her favorite for the US Open
In the recently uploaded video by Pointsbet, Spiranac revealed her predictions for this week's US Open. She feels those who had a good performance at Riviera will do well at the LACC as well.
She said:
"I'm so excited for the US Open. So let's break it down. LACC designed by George Thomas who also did Riviera Country Club and that's important. So look for players who played well at Riviera and they should have a good go at LACC."
"It's a par 70 playing over 7400 yards. It's a beast of a golf course but it won't play as long as it reads on the scorecard because of those firm fast Fairways and they have a lot of slope to them, but there is a par 3. You that's 290 yards.
US Open! Who are you picking? https://t.co/WnZAuZdxDZ
Besides naming Scheffler, Koepka, and Rahm, she made an interesting prediction about Max Homa doing well this week.
"No surprise to absolutely anyone Scottie Scheffler. John Rahm and Brooks Koepka. Another huge favorite is California boy, Max Homa. He played well Riviera member same course architect and he shot a 61 at LACC before a backpack. It is going to be a fantastic week of golf with amazing play."
