Paige Spiranac is looking to give golf fans what they want as they lobby for her to land a new position on the PGA Tour.
After the former LPGA golf pro and social media influencer made a cameo on a recent broadcast, her followers quickly made it known that they'd like to see more of her as an on-course reporter.
"If the new PGA CEO doesn't immediately hire @PaigeSpiranac as an on-course reporter, then all is lost," a user said.
To which Paige replied: "I mean the people have spoken."
Others seconded the potential career change in her mentions.
"I wholeheartedly 1 million percent AGREE with this statement," a fan replied.
"I've been saying this for awhile," another commented.
"💯💯💯. Hire her now!!" an account exclaimed.
"That would be a great job for you!" another person pointed out.
"Please don't take my job," Colt Knost pleaded.
"For the record, it's not your looks, you have been exceptionally good at this particular job, just genuinely impressed," the initial user followed-up.
"I approve of this message."
As cool as it would be to see Spiranac as a full-time PGA broadcaster, it's not like she's hurting in her current form. The 32-year-old has racked up a combined 5 million followers across her content on Instagram and X, and has legions of loyal fans subscribed to her Passes account.
Still though it'd be pretty neat. We'll see what the future holds for her though as she continues covering the game she loves.Paige Spiranac Has Her Eyes Set On A Big New Job first appeared on The Spun on Jun 18, 2025

Packers' Christian Watson Shares Promising Instagram Video Amid Injury Recovery

Packers' Christian Watson Shares Promising Instagram Video Amid Injury Recovery originally appeared on Athlon Sports. If you've caught any interviews with Green Bay Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, you have probably noticed how openly he talks about Christian Watson and how much the team values him—not just as a player, but as a person too. It does not matter how many targets Watson gets—his willingness to put on a blocking clinic for the run game is just one testament to how unselfish number 9 is and shows his strong character. Advertisement Watson tore his ACL in the 2024 regular-season finale against the Chicago Bears and should miss the start of the 2025 season. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said he is ahead of schedule in his recovery, which is encouraging. While Watson's dad believes he will likely return in the second half of the 2025 season, there could be a chance he will come back sooner than expected. The possibility of an early return got an extra spark this week when Watson posted another encouraging update in his recovery.

Green Bay has historically taken a conservative approach when easing players back from injury, and that is unlikely to change with Watson. Given the seriousness of his ACL tear and how valuable he is to the offense, there is no chance the Packers will rush him back unless they're 100% confident he can protect himself and play without restriction. Advertisement It would be in Green Bay's best interest to have Watson back at full speed just in time for a potential playoff run. Not only does he bring a unique element of speed to the offense, but he was also their best man-coverage beater last year. He is arguably Green Bay's most dangerous offensive weapon, with the ability to elevate both the passing attack and the run game whenever he's on the field. On the other hand, Watson and his camp will likely take a cautious and smart approach to his return. He's entering the final year of his rookie contract, and any misstep could impact his health and hurt his chances of securing a long-term extension with the Packers. Still, both sides should work together to find the best possible scenario—one that protects Watson's future while maximizing his value to the team.

Travis Kelce, Taylor Swift captured enjoying surprise date night at trendy NYC Italian restaurant

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift enjoyed a surprise date night at a trendy New York City Italian restaurant Friday night, and their exit was captured by a stunned fan across the street. The power couple was captured exiting Torrisi, housed in the historic Puck Building on Mulberry Street in Little Italy, after arriving in NYC on a private jet earlier in the day. 5 Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce exit Torrisi in NYC on Friday night. @javanjoslin/Instagram Advertisement Kelce wore similar clothes to what he arrived in, as he donned a white short-sleeved shirt with two buttons, a round blue collar and 'US Soccer' across the front in blue, in addition to white shorts and white sneakers.

I know I'm getting older, but at the same time, I still feel like I got a lot that I can prove in this league … It really wasn't that hard of a decision for me.'

‘Daily Show' Staffer on Triumph at Pedro Pascal Look-Alike Contest: 'It's Been Insane' (Exclusive)

On Sunday, George Gountas enjoyed a life of relative obscurity. True, the 42-year-old resident of Brooklyn has enjoyed a taste of the limelight — literally, as he's been the lighting designer for The Daily Show since 2018. And yes, he was used to being told he looked like a certain celebrity whose profile has skyrocketed in recent years. But for the most part, he was just George from Greenpoint, father of two. More from The Hollywood Reporter "Who Gives a F*** What Other People Think": Walton Goggins, Adam Scott and the Drama Actor Roundtable Late-Night TV Hosts on Trump's "Big Stupid Birthday Parade": "Almost Makes Me Feel Bad for Him" How Celine Song's 'Materialists' Approaches New York City Wealth All of that changed yesterday when Gountas, egged on by his wife and Daily Show staffers, entered a Pedro Pascal look-alike contest. Sponsored by Lower East Side's Son Del North Mexican restaurant — who wanted to prove the Materialists star wrong in his assessment on Hot Ones that New York has no good Mexican food — the competition gave the winner burritos for a year and $50 cash, plus unlimited bragging rights. It was instantly obvious to everyone in attendance (and hundreds of onlookers showed up, plus a couple dozen contestants) that Pedro No. 5 was the clear winner. Pascal, 50, has already given his blessing, commenting on a viral Instagram post about Gountas' win with a teary-eyed smiley face emoji and a heart. Gountas granted his first post-triumph media interview to The Hollywood Reporter. *** George, I have to say this is very startling. Your resemblance to Pedro Pascal must have interrupted your life a lot over the past few years. It started back when Pedro was on Game of Thrones. He was Red Viper, a very beloved character. They killed off a lot of those in very startling fashion. My wife was so freaked out when he got killed. She's like, 'I can't watch this. I feel like the guy is crushing your head.' Then my daughter's classmates would tell their parents how I 'look like famous people.' They'd take pictures of their TVs and send them to my wife. You could be his twin brother. I look more like him than I look like my own brother. What's amazing is that you also work in show business, like him. Tell me about your job. I am the lighting designer at The Daily Show, which is a wonderful place to work. We're a very tight-knit group and have a daily text on what's needed for the day. One of the stage managers, Tyler, found the advertisement for the contest and was like, 'Yo, George, go win some free burritos.' I showed it to my wife and she's like, 'Yeah, you're going to this.' My neighbor is a stylist and art director and she was like, 'I've got shoes for you, I've got pants for you.' It was a whole thing. Pedro has done a lot of talk shows, but has he done ? In my tenure, he hasn't been there. I've been there since 2018. So I don't remember him coming by, but hopefully he does now. I feel like that's imminent now. There was a picture on somebody's Instagram with a side-by-side of him and me. Apparently he commented with a couple of tear emojis and a heart. So it was pretty funny. That's going to be a huge summit, just the two of you meeting. Let's talk about the contest. It was at a Mexican restaurant. The whole root of it is that he complained about Mexican food in New York? That's my understanding. I'm assuming he lives in Los Angeles and obviously L.A. is known for its great Mexican food. He wasn't happy [with New York's offerings]. So they said, 'We'll show you. We're going to do this contest.' I already started trying my first burritos. And they're excellent. Tell me about the scene there. Was it mayhem? How many people showed up? It was unbelievable. I live in Greenpoint, which is not too far away. My kids wanted to come, so my wife and kids joined me. And as we're getting closer, there's 1,000 people in the street. Cars are honking, trying to get by. Apparently you're supposed to sign up in advance. I didn't. I just kind of walked up and said, 'Hey, I'm here.' And so you met your other contestants. The other ones did not hold a candle to you. I guess they all realized it the second they saw you. Listen, I sized them all up, I'm not going to lie. No. 18 look good from far. Great head of hair. No. 18 had me beat in that department. The Instagram comments are pretty vicious, saying I should go to Turkey. Don't read the comments. So you were named the winner and what do you get? Burritos for a year, and 50 bucks. That's like going out for ice cream at Greenpoint. Have you heard from any of your bosses at yet? Everyone's super supportive. It's been pretty insane. There's a full page spread in The New York Post and people are just screenshotting everything and sending it to me. Has Jon Stewart said anything? I haven't seen or spoken to him yet. I'm anxious about going to the show and have everybody make fun of me. It's kind of a very cool family environment there.
