Paige Spiranac is a freshly-single golf influencer who is in many people’s eyes the reigning queen of sports social media.
Tom Brady is a newly-single NFL legend who currently serves as the starting quarterback of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Understandably, in recent days, chatter has erupted about a romance between the pair.
It all started with this tweet:
If I were Tom Brady, I’d call @PaigeSpiranac. 29 years old, incredibly hot, recently divorced and a former professional athlete who would understand and support what he does for a living. And Brady loves to play golf. Now this would be a power couple. pic.twitter.com/BYWbpkrhEJ

The idea was a hit. A number of responses to it came pouring in, both for and against.
The reactions were telling:
Dave. I walked 18 in phx open pro am with her.
She’s a super nice person— KB (@KevinCBryant2) November 19, 2022
She wants what she wants when she wants it , Brady gots soccer games and homework duty, not a good match

This guy? has millions of fans, arguably greatest athletes America has ever seen. Almost half a billion$ worth. Better looking and fitter than 99% on planet. I mean his partner will be remembered in sports just for being his partner

The rumors began to get so loud that, at one point, Spiranac herself felt the need to respond:
You guys are so sweet, thank you! It takes no effort to be nice so I always try to do my part to make someone’s day better

While the rationale behind this pairing obviously makes sense, it’s unlikely to ultimately materialize. Spiranac had a pretty brutal take on Brady’s split from Gisele Bundchen.
She also didn’t have the kindest take on some of his recent decisions.
There is a reason why, when Brady was linked to three women recently, Spiranac was not one of them.
Things can obviously change and anything can happen, but at the moment at least, it doesn’t look like love is in the cards for these two.
That’s quite the dress. The Bucks may have a new team captain. https://t.co/vDYWYCFRsI

Both Spiranac and Brady will inevitably find partners that fulfill them and make them happy.
Will those partners be each other, though?
Almost certainly not.
