Social Media
Paige started to become famous ever since she began to post more trick shot videos on her Instagram account. However, Instagram had also been one of the sources of stress for Paige. In her interview with Bunkered that many netizens had criticized her that she only had a beautiful face but had no real talent. There were even a few who told her to quit golf. Instagram was the one who introduced Paige to the world, but in effect, it raised the expectations for the golfer. Paige said, “When I first turned pro, I think a lot of people thought I was going to be so much better than I was because of my social media profile. They see somebody posting lots of pictures, getting into the public eye, attracting a following, and they assume I’m going to be a great player. I’ve heard a lot of people say that I show a lot of skin or whatever, but, for someone my age, I actually think I keep it pretty tame. There are a lot of other people out – fitness models and so on – who post pictures of themselves in their underwear. Nothing wrong with that, but it’s just not something I choose to do. I guess I had the notoriety without the results, but golf’s a game where you lose more than you win. It’s a cliché, but it’s true. It just doesn’t make it any easier to stand in front of a lot of people and have them watch you fail.”
