Paige Spiranac has been named the 'Sexiest Woman Alive' by MAXIM who have placed the golf social media sensation on their '2022 Hot 100' Issue.
Spiranac, 29, who has more Instagram followers than Tiger Woods with 3.3 million, took to her social media channels to explain she was shocked by the news but how she is now ready to party in Miami to celebrate her latest award.
MAXIM adds that it marks the first time an athlete has taken their No.1 spot.
"I am so honored by being named the sexiest woman alive by MAXIM this year," wrote Spiranac on her latest Instagram post that featured four of her latest snaps used in the magazine as well as the front cover.
"When I got the call I kept asking them, 'are you sure?' because I was truly in disbelief.
"To me being sexy is about confidence and feeling comfortable in your own skin. I've always tried to stay true to myself throughout my unconventional path and now I'm so proud to be following so many amazing women who carried the title in years before me.
"Thank you again MAXIM for this moment and to Gilles Bensimon for these beautiful pictures. Now let's party in Miami."
