Paige Spiranac spills her favorites for the US Open in revealing fashion
Paige Spiranac is not just another pretty face on social media. The former professional golfer turned influencer also has an excellent eye for betting. This year, Spiranac has already picked the winners of the Augusta Masters and the PGA Championship, and she is looking to make it three for three with her champion prediction for the US Open, which starts this week.
In a video she posted on her Instagram Stories, the model and analyst recalled that this past April, she correctly predicted that Scottie Scheffler would win the Masters. In May, in another accurate analysis, she foresaw that Xander Schauffele would take the title at Valhalla.
Looking ahead to the US Open, which will be held from June 13 to 16, Spiranac explained that players will have to be at their best in all aspects of their game if they want to aspire to the championship. However, she highlighted two types of players who have a definite advantage on the Pinehurst field.

Dressed in a striking white outfit with a plunging neckline, which provided a magnificent view of her assets, Spiranac explained that there are “two categories that stuck out to me: amazing iron players and short-game wizards.”
Given Pinehurst’s characteristics and player profiles, Paige stated, “Because of those two things, I’m picking, of course, Scottie Scheffler, Bryson DeChambeau, and Collin Morikawa for my outrights.”
She admitted that “everybody and their mothers are betting on Scottie Scheffler this week and for good reason.” However, she noted, “there are some other bets that I’m also liking: top-five finish, Tommy Fleetwood; top-ten finish, Keegan Bradley; and top-20 finish, Aaron Rai.”
Scheffler’s path
Scottie Scheffler has made impressive progress this year on the PGA Tour. He has five wins in his last eight tournaments, and in 2023 he finished third in the US Open, played at The Los Angeles Country Club. Jon Rahm’s withdrawal and the slump that Rory McIlroy is going through could also favor Scheffler.
The big problem for Scottie Scheffler is his number one status in the PGA rankings. Specialists have pointed out that since the Official World Golf Ranking was established, no number one in the world has been crowned in the US Open.
However, perhaps Spiranac is the lucky charm that Scheffler needs to overcome the “curse” and become the first number one in the world to conquer the US Open.
