Spiranac is a former professional influencer and analyst for the game, and, apparently, she wanted a shooting with the reigning PGA and the open champion.
“I went to school to SDSU with Xander Schauffele. And another fun fact is that I had the crush on him, and he didn’t want to have anything to do with me,” said Spiranac on “The Spinvitational”.
“He met his Maya wife in Sdsu, so it was supposed to be the being. Didn’t work for me this way.”
Spiranac was married to the sports coach Steven Tinoco in 2018, but they were no longer “married” in 2022. She is one of the best influencers of sports on social networks, building a series of more than 4 million on Instagram and 1.6 million others on Tiktok.

She had a lot of collaborations because of her enormous audience, including a recent with Bryson Dechambeau, who sparked rumors of meetings.
“I had professional athletes or famous people who slip into my DMS. I have never left any famous anyone,” she said. “It’s funny because I’m going to see all these titles. There was one where I pulled content with Bryson, then a title said that I went out with him.”
Spiranac also said she heard rumors that she went out with Tom Brady, “which was so crazy.”
“It is like every time that I turned content with a male celebrity, it is the title or all the comments, which can be really difficult for my work where I work in an industry dominated by men. … It is really frustrating because I have never left with any famous, not even close,” added Spiranac, who discussed other vile rumors on herself, added.

Schauffele won its first two majors last year, becoming the first player since Brooks Koepka in 2018 to win two majors the same year. He finished in the top eight of each of his last five majors and ended up on the second row in each of the last two championships of players.
