Paige Spiranac swapped golf for tennis at the weekend as she headed to New York to watch the US Open.<\/p>\n
She’s renowned as golf’s glamor girl but with a different major tournament in town, the 30-year-old refused to pass up the opportunity to see some elite sport at close quarters.<\/p>\n
She shared a picture of herself at Arthur Ashes stadium and was taking in the matches on Saturday in a sun-soaked Big Apple.<\/p>\n
Spiranac would have seen defending men’s champion Carlos Alcaraz advance into the quarterfinal while American Jessica Pegula beat Ukraine’s Elina Svitolina in three sets.<\/p>\n
Those two are back in action on Monday – Alcaraz plays Italy’s Matteo Arnaldo while Pegula has an all-American matchup against Madison Keys.<\/p>\n

Spiranac is best known for her golf game but has no secret of her love of other sports<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Spiranac turned her hand to baseball recently – throwing the first pitch at a Brewers game<\/p>\n
For Spiranac, while golf is very much her passion, she has never made any secret of her all-round love for other sports.<\/p>\n
Back in June, she had the honor of throwing the first pitch for the Milwaukee Brewers against against Pittsburgh Pirates in Major League Baseball.<\/p>\n
She had her own Brewers jersey and the No 22 on the back – while the Brewers themselves organized the moment with a tip of the hat for her ties to golf.<\/p>\n
Spiranac had a caddie stood alongside the mound with a golf bag and a steward jokingly holding up a sign saying ‘quiet please’ before she took her throw at American Family Field.<\/p>\n
Fans got a Spiranac bobblehead on the night as well, and the golf influencer took to social media to thank the Brewers for having her along.<\/p>\n
But her first and main love is golf and Spiranac still makes it to the big tournaments – she shared a picture of herself at the Masters in Augusta, Georgia earlier this year.<\/p>\n
