golf’s top glamour girl paige spiranac claims she lacks self-confidence and suffers from imposter syndrome.

“this question is funny because it’s actually such the opposite where i have people in my life trying to build me up and make me more confident because i have self-confidence issues and imposter syndrome,” spiranac said.
“and so all of this that i do is actually quite hard for me because i have no confidence and i’m always doubting myself or talking down on myself, so everyone’s like, ‘stop doing that.’

“so it’s very much the opposite. i keep myself very grounded and i think sometimes i actually need to build myself up more and do the opposite because i’m my toughest critic and again, that imposter syndrome is real.”

still, that didn’t stop the world’s most popular golf influencer from admitting that 2022 was her “best year yet” and that she feels fulfilled.
“life has been actually pretty good,” she said. “thank you for asking. professionally, personally everything seems to finally be in order. i have done so much work in therapy to be happy and feel fulfilled in life. and professionally i’ve been working my butt off and this is the best year i’ve had yet, which is exciting.

“but i think 2023 is going to be even better in all aspects of my life and i just feel really lucky and i want to thank you guys for always supporting and following along. i’m going on vacation soon.”
meanwhile, the links lovely is weighing on deion sanders’s appointment as head coach of the university of colorado football team. sanders told his players: shape up or ship out.
“honestly, i love [the] transparency. i was a d1 athlete,” spiranac said. “after i signed my nli, they changed head coaches, and at that point i should have transferred immediately.”
however, installing deion sanders jr. as the quarterback has left a bad taste in her mouth.
she said: “what i don’t like is your son being the quarterback. i’m not sure about that, but what do i know?”
at least one fan agreed.
he replied: “i agree with you paige! i like that he is transparent. however, i would have a hard time if i were the qb and the coach decided to put his own son in over me. he should have to earn it! nobody ever gave me anything i had to bust ass for everything i have!”
