‘If anyone tries to cancel Tiger over this, we riot!’: Glamor golfer Paige Spiranac defends Woods’ ‘FUNNY’ tampon joke… after 15-time major winner forced to apologize

Paige Spiranac has jumped to the defense of Tiger Woods amid backlash she received over a tampon prank between him and fellow golfer Justin Thomas.

Woods handed his friend and rival Thomas a tampon during the first round of the Genesis Invitational, shortly after beating him off the tee, with cameras, unfortunately for Woods, capturing the moment.

Spiranac, a former college golfer turned model and influencer, was quick to react to the situation, saying: “If anyone tries to cancel Tiger over this, we’re going to riot.” He is funny.

“It’s interesting to see women outraged that Tiger put JT in a tampon after he wore it, but I’ll be quickly shot down by those same women for how I’ve decided to build my business.” You can’t choose when to be a feminist.

Woods spent the day taking heat for the prank, which he finally apologized for after his second round on Friday.

One of those who criticized Woods was USA Today sports columnist Christine Brennan.

“My guess is that most of the millions of fathers and mothers who support their athletic daughters have probably long since withdrawn all their juvenile jokes that were intended to demean the ability of those girls they love and spend so much time cheering for.” . Brennan wrote.

But not our Tiger. No, he employed basic misogyny to insult his good friend Thomas, a knee-slap from a dig at female athletes: You hit the ball like a girl!

Another member of the media who came down hard on Woods was Sky Sports golf analyst Sarah Stirk, who furiously criticized Woods for being ‘rude’.

‘My main feelings are completely surprised and really disappointed. I am a woman who works in the sport, I am passionate and love the game of golf, and I believe that we all fight for equality,” Stirk said via sky sports.

“We’ve all seen the massive strides everyone is making to promote women’s sport, there’s more media exposure, increased participation levels, we want women’s sport to be on an equal footing with men.

“I think this incident last night was extremely disappointing and rude to be honest. They are two good friends JT and Tiger Woods, good friends, they play a lot together.

“Woods outdid Thomas, apparently it was done as a joke, but to me it was kind of boyish, masculine behavior,” he added.

“She hands him the tampon and he’s effectively saying ‘look, I’m over you, you’re driving the ball like a woman.'”

‘This is the inference of the incident that happened, which says that women and women are inferior to men.’

Spiranac is never outspoken in offering her opinions and jumped to Woods' defense.

Spiranac would go on to advocate a more strategic response than angry criticism or cancellation.

“Instead of women being outraged by Tiger and the tampon, I’d love for you to actually come up with ideas to help,” she tweeted.

‘For example, I would have [Tampax] join the PGA tour in a campaign to provide free women’s products on the golf courses.

“Most don’t really have them and during long rounds it can be a problem for us.”
