They Thought I’d Keep Quiet…” Paige Spiranac Speaks Out Against Shocking Rumors in a No-Holds-Barred Statement
They Thought I’d Keep Quiet…”
Paige Spiranac Speaks Out Against Shocking Rumors in a No-Holds-Barred Statement
When rumors swirl and whispers gain momentum, many public figures choose silence or carefully worded responses. But Paige Spiranac? She refused to stay quiet. In a raw, unfiltered statement, she directly addressed the shocking chatter surrounding her early career — and struck back with courage, clarity, and a resolve not to be shamed into silence.
The Rumors That Stirred Controversy
It wasn’t just idle gossip. During a recent appearance on the “Quiet Please!” podcast, Spiranac revealed that early in her post-college, early-professional transition, she was confronted with vicious rumors — namely, that she had performed “sexual favors” to secure invitations to tournaments.
These allegations were not whispered behind closed doors: she claims they were said in earshot, in situations meant to undermine her credentials and her integrity.
Even worse, these rumors appeared precisely at a vulnerable moment — when her social media presence was exploding, when she was still figuring out how to handle the weight of scrutiny.
Her Response: Beyond Denial — A Reckoning
Spiranac’s address was not just about refuting claims — it was about exposing the emotional toll, the mental pressure, and the indignity of being told she owed her success to something unearned.
Key lines and revelations:
“There were constant comments … they would say [it] within earshots of me … and I was listening to it.”
The incident occurred around her first invitation to play in a LET event in Dubai when she was new to the international circuit.
She admitted the rumors were among “the worst moment” of her life.
Beyond reputation, she detailed the personal cost: emotional distress, anxiety, and questioning her path forward.
Rather than shrink from scrutiny, she turned it into testimony: testimony of resilience, self-worth, and refusal to be defined by lies.
How the Public Reacted
A wave of support poured in from her followers and the broader golf community. Many expressed empathy, praised her bravery, and called the rumors grotesque and sexist.
Media outlets revisited her journey, emphasizing how social media growth can magnify slander and how she’s used her platform to fight cyberbullying.
Some critics questioned the timing or accuracy — but Spiranac’s firm, detailed recollections have made it difficult to dismiss her version.
Why This Statement Matters
Breaking the culture of silence
In many industries, especially sports, reputational attacks are often dismissed or swept under the rug. By speaking, Spiranac challenges that norm.
Reframing the narrative
Rather than letting her detractors shape her story, she retook the pen — making her truth the first draft.
Highlighting mental health costs
Her disclosure reinforces that rumors, slander, and misogyny in public life come with deep psychological consequences.
Empowerment for others
Her stance sends a message to others who have been shamed, silenced, or gaslit: your voice matters. You don’t owe compliance to injustice.

Djokovic learns fate in new home as Sabalenka addresses behaviour
Express Sport brings you the latest tennis news from the Paris Masters.
We’re reaching the business end of the Paris Masters, as eight players become four in the French capital. Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming favourite to lift the trophy after Carlos Alcaraz was dumped out by Cameron Norrie in the Spaniard’s opening match. Norrie was then beaten by Valentin Vacherot, whose amazing 10-match winning streak at Masters 1000 level came to an end when he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Canadian star Auger-Aliassime will face Alexander Bublik in the semis. Bublik defeated Alex de Minaur, who is among those to have already qualified for the year-end ATP Finals. Sinner is through to his first Paris Masters semi-final after beating Ben Shelton. He’ll face defending champion Alexander Zverev, who survived a tough match against Daniil Medvedev.
Novak Djokovic is not involved in the Paris Masters, having decided to skip the event for the second year in a row, but he has learned his fate in the draw of next week’s ATP 250 in Athens. And over in Riyadh, the WTA Finals are about to get underway.
