That didn’t Paige well!
Paige Spiranac has reignited her online sparring with Bryson DeChambeau by taunting the icon over his old Augusta boasts.
As the American big-hitter prepares for the Masters next week, social media celebrity Spiranac jibed: “Remember when Bryson called Augusta National a par 67. Good times.”
It’s true DeChambeau has hardly performed with honours at the Masters.
The Californian, 28, has never finished higher than 21st at Augusta.
But in 2020 – the year he won his only major, the US Open – he made short shrift of the long Masters holes… on paper at least.

DeChambeau said then: “I’m looking at it as a par 67 for me because I can reach all the par fives in two, no problem.”
“If the conditions stay the way they are, that’s what I feel like par is for me.”
Former pro Paige, 29, said: “Saying that the par at Augusta was 67 was so disrespectful.”
Her previous barbs at DeChambeau’s power-hitting foibles include: “I get so much joy from watching the best in the world hit hacker shots just like us.”
And she once posted he ‘deservedly gets a lot of s***’.
But Spiranac then praised his role in the USA destroying Europe in the Ryder Cup last year.
And she has also said: “I know a lot of people think that I’m a Bryson hater, I am not a Bryson hater.
“I said some things about Bryson when he was acting up, being a little bit of a jerk, called him out on it, but since then, I haven’t had a problem with Bryson.
“He is fun to talk about, at times he is fun to hate on, he is an easy joke.
“It’s all in good fun, and maybe I’ve crossed the line here or there, but I’ve just tried to do it in a humorous way.”
