Paige Spiranac Calls Out Former Masters Champion For Being Soft & Dropping An F-Bomb On Fans At Augusta
Paige Spiranac is more than a pretty face who wears tight clothes and fires off red-hot golf content. Don't get me wrong, that's in large part how she's built her following, but she's also a huge fan of the sport and isn't afraid to flex her influencer muscles on occasion to call folks out when the moment presents itself.
On Friday, such a moment presented itself. Zach Johnson was having a rough afternoon, ultimately missing the cut because of it. Before his afternoon came to an end, the former Masters champion triple-bogeyed the 12th hole and let an F-bomb fly which appeared to be directed at some nearby fans.
As you can see in the video of the incident after finally tapping in a putt on the 12th, he picks up the ball, turns his head and yells "f*ck off" before walking away from the hole.
That's not how it played out, according to Johnson. His version of events is that the F-bomb was directed at himself. Here's part of his explanation, "If I’ve said anything, which I’m not going to deny, especially if it’s on camera, one, I apologize, and two, it was fully directed towards myself entirely because I can’t hear anything behind me. Does that make sense?"
It's safe to assume that we can count Paige among those who don't buy Johnson's explanation for the outburst. She responded on X to the viral clip and had the backs of the good folks at Augusta National.

Paige said, "The patrons at Augusta are unbelievably supportive and mild-mannered. You can’t find a more pleasant environment to play golf in."
"The fact ZJ said this proves he’s softer than baby poop," she continued. "Such a bad look."
This is the part of being the OutKick Culture Department’s No. 1 ranked golf influencer in the world that doesn't get talked about enough. The creation of The Masters green jacket look is very important work, there's absolutely no denying that.
It's an essential part of the overall golf influencer game, but so is calling a golfer out when they pull soft moves like this. Paige gets it and it's part of why she's the best.
