While speaking at the Omega Ladies Masters, Paige Spiranac caught up with Arabian Golf TV to have a chat about who inspires her and why she plays golf.
Billed as an "internet sensation" throughout the week and largely coming under-fire for being brought to Dubai to face the Masters, Spiranac had a somewhat turbulent first trip abroard.
The 22-year-old eventually finished 101st out of a field of 108 and missed the cut by eight strokes at Emirates Golf Club.

It was her first outing on the professional stage having been invited along as the sponsor's excempt pick, largely on the back of her vast social media following.
It was an attempt to widen the reach of the ladies' game and certainly did that with the presence of Spiranac, even if she failed to keep up with the competition.
Here, speaking before the tournament, she cut an optimistic figure and one determined to be a hit at future tournaments.
