Popular golf influencer Paige Spiranac returned to Twitter this week with another one of her patented PGA Tour prediction videos.
This time around, Spiranac provided her insight on who she thinks has a good shot at winning the Scottish Open at The Renaissance Club in North Berwick.
Bonus: Paige shot the video from somewhere other than her bedroom!
“With the Open coming up, a lot of players use the Scottish Open as a practice round, a test to see where their game is going into the major,” Paige begins the video.
“So I keep that in mind when I’m picking certain players for the Scottish Open,” Paige explained.
“I’m liking Tommy Fleetwood.
“His game is better than ever and he’s still searching for that first win.
“I think the Scottish Open might be where it happens.
“I’m also liking Tyrrell Hatton, who is playing some of the best golf of his career.
“Another two players I’m liking, and you got to go with somebody who’s hot, and no one is hotter than Rickie Fowler right now,” Spiranac continued.
“Another player is Rory McIlroy.
“I said I would never pick him again for a major after he has broken my heart too many times.
“So why not pick him for the Scottish Open?”
Then, as she always does, Paige Spiranac asks for her viewers to chime in with their picks. And some of them actually did it.

“Paige your golf correspondence is amazing and so are your outfits,” one fan commented.
If Rahm is playing, I could never count him out.

“Top 3: Scheffler, Rickie Fowler, and Taylor Moore,” someone else suggested.
Way to go out on a limb Paige! Everybody can pick one of the favorites! I want to know your dark horses! Pick someone like Seamus Power or Ludvic Aberg! They don't have to win, but just make the cut and get me points so I can pick Rory or the other favorites!

“I like Rickie BUT he just won and Jordan is My Fav,” wrote another golf fan. “BUT he isn’t playing well enough, and Fleetwood can’t win yet, Rory can’t finish and [Rahm] is not playing well either so I am picking BROOKS 2 win!!”
Any reason why you don’t have picks or predictions for womens events?.. don’t think I’ve ever seen videos of that.. the recent US open was exciting to watch..

That’s actually a pretty good question.
