Paige Spiranac has been nervous about her appearance in Colorado, and well, Clark shared tips on how to keep calm and maintain the swing. Yet, amidst her hardcore preparation, Spiranac brought back the topic of one of her irrational fears.
Paige Spiranac is scared of squirrels!
A few hours after announcing her presence at the BMW Championship 2024 in Colorado, Paige Spiranac once again unraveled her fear of squirrels. She shared a board by the Marine Science Center at the golf course on her Instagram story. It said, “Please don’t feed the squirrels. They’re cute, but they bite.”
As she put it up, Spiranac also mentioned, “Nightmare fuel”. She is known for being fearless and always hitting back at haters but Paige too has fears of her own, and well this one is hilarious indeed. Even last year, in an intimate video of her life, while playing a par-5 at the University of Denver Golf Club, she revealed some fun facts about herself, and well her fear of squirrels was one such thing about her.
“My biggest fear is squirrels,” Spiranac joked. Well, be it the East Lake or the Castle Pines, the Colorado golf course might have a peaceful environment, but they sure are filled with birds chirping, trying to soar across the sky and the squirrels ruffling in the trees above! So well, there’s something to be worried about as she enters the Creator Classic.
While the small creatures get on her nerves, there is something else that the former San Diego State golfer is also afraid of. And well, that surely surpasses the former in terms of horror.
Paige Spiranac is scared of letting her parents down
In one of her podcasts back in 2022, Paige Spiranac revealed that she feared not being able to keep up with her parent’s expectations. She unravels how her parents have spent a lot of money on her becoming a professional athlete. However, Spiranac thinks she could not reach that level, and thus had to settle for being a golf influencer instead.
She also added that this is something that also fuels her at the same time. She wants to continue being successful in whatever she does because she wants to show them that all the sacrifices that they made, did not go in vain. “I want to make them proud, I want to be successful, I want to do everything I can to almost pay them back. And they always, I think wanted me to secretly be a professional athlete,” said the 31 YO Golf Influencer.
