Paige Spiranac Is Sick Of Women Bringing Down Each Other, Referencing To NY Times Article About Olivia Dunne

The New York Times published a contentious article about LSU gymnast Olivia Dunne earlier this week. According to Kurt Streeter’s article, the “sex sells” endorsement paradigm is causing empowerment for female athletes to regress. For its contentious statements, this piece faced a lot of criticism. Paige Spiranac, a golf personality, is the most recent well-known figure to critique the article.

Spiranac singled out other women who disparaged Dunne for earning money “differently than they would” in her statement.

Paige Spiranac, who has also achieved fame and money through her physical talent and social media savvy, replied to criticism of Dunne’s lack of success as a gymnast at LSU from other female gymnasts.

“I’m so sick of women belittling the accomplishments of other women because it’s done differently than they would. @livvydunne is getting hate for making 2 million a year,” Spiranac tweeted Friday morning. “She’s built a successful business (at 20) all while being a student-athlete. That’s badass.”

Spiranac previously competed professionally on the Cactus Tour while playing golf for the University of Arizona and San Diego State. She was ranked first earlier this year on the Maxim Hot 100.

Dunne was the subject of a New York Times story by Kurt Streeter, who wrote about the concern that the new flow of NIL money to female college athletes “rewards traditional feminine desirability over athletic excellence.”

Tara VanDerveer, the head coach of Stanford’s women’s basketball team, “sees the element of the NIL revolution that emphasises beauty as backward for female athletes,” Streeter wrote.

VanDerveer was mentioned in the article in full as well.

“I guess there are instances when we act like a pendulum, moving ahead two steps and then reversing course. We are fighting for all of the chances to play, compete, and have access to equipment, facilities, coaches, and everything else that comes with Olympic-caliber athletics, she said. “This is going backwards.”

In the new NIL era, Dunne has won several endorsement opportunities because of her large social media following. The 20-year-old athlete declined to provide her exact yearly earnings, although she did acknowledge that they exceed seven figures.
