GOLF influencer Paige Spiranac has opened up about how a phone ban at The Masters has harmed her social media game.
She has been at every day of the iconic golf tournament so far but has been stifled by an old rule.

The Masters course at Augusta has a long and strict list of rules that it enforces fiercely.
Among these are the fact that no phones are allowed to be taken into the vicinity of the course, even if they are left in a patron&#8217;s pocket.
There is also a total ban on cameras, which makes social media influencing almost impossible for the likes of Paige.
Responding to this, she posted a selfie to her Instagram story wearing a straw hat and Adidas dress.
She also gave fans an update as to why she hasn&#8217;t been posting much.
Paige wrote: &#8220;Been having the best time ever at the Masters! Sorry I haven&#8217;t been as active.
&#8220;It&#8217;s hard when you can&#8217;t bring your phone in but can&#8217;t wait to update you guys later!
&#8220;Who do you think is winning tomorrow?&#8221;
