American stunner Paige Spiranac has revealed that men would use binoculars to keep an eye on her while she played golf with glam outfits.
According to British tabloid, The Sun, Spiranac, who has three million followers on Instagram, felt the on-course activities indicate how authorities managing the clubs function and blasted them for being unfriendly and old-fashioned. On her podcast, Playing A Round, Spiranac said: "I've literally been to country clubs where guys are used range-finders to look at me from two fairways over. And I've had people say, like, âwho let her on?' "
Spiranac spoke after America's well-known golf course, Pine Valley, voted to allow women to join for the first time in its 108-year history. Earlier, the club in New Jersey only allowed women to play as guests on Sunday afternoons.
Recently, the club president Jim Davis sent an email to its members regarding the development and felt that the move will put Pine Valley "on the right side of history."
