Paige Spiranac has never shied away from expressing her admiration for Tiger Woods. The golf influencer and former pro player has long credited Woods as a major source of her inspiration, both on and off the course. In a recent wave of interviews and social media posts, Spiranac once again made headlines for her glowing praise of the 15-time major champion—this time calling out a rare and powerful quality that keeps her thinking about him: *”the It factor.”*
Spiranac revealed that Woods’ charisma, competitive edge, and magnetic presence have captivated her since the beginning of her career. “Tiger Woods inspired me to continue playing,” she once said in an interview with *Golf Digest*, reinforcing just how deep his impact on her has been.
More recently, she took to Instagram with a tribute to Tiger’s iconic style, posting a picture of herself mimicking his signature shot in an orange jumpsuit, saying she was “just trying to be like Tiger with my Sunday Red.” The playful tribute showed more than just admiration—it was a nod to how deeply ingrained Woods’ influence is in her approach to golf and her public persona.
But what really caught fans’ attention was her comment about a charity event where Woods gave her a chipping lesson. “It was a moment I’ll never forget,” she said. That interaction, coupled with her remarks about how good Woods smells—yes, even that detail has fans talking—adds a personal and almost whimsical touch to her otherwise deeply respectful admiration.
In a world where athletes are often remembered for stats alone, Paige Spiranac reminds us that some, like Tiger Woods, go beyond the numbers. They possess an aura, a gravitational pull that can’t be taught. And for Spiranac, Tiger Woods is the epitome of that elusive *“It Factor.”*
