PAIGE SPIRANAC earned a whopping SIX FIGURES for her now-famous Masters' towel post.
The former professional golfer turned social media sensation nearly broke Instagram in 2021 with a saucy snap of herself donning a replica of the world-famous green jacket.
Spiranac, 30, was braless as she sported a green mini-skirt which accentuated her taut and athletic figure.
The post - which went viral - received a whopping 338,000 likes and had close to 11,000 comments.
As well as growing her social media following, the sexy snap earned the blonde bombshell a pretty penny.

In an interview with Golf Digest, Spiranac revealed she pocketed over £80,000 for the sexy Masters post.
Spiranac opted to use a comment criticising her sexy pictures for her accompanying caption, writing: "No one will ever take you seriously if you keep posting pictures with cleavage."
But she added: "So here’s to continuing doing what I want.
"I made some towels with this image . . . to buy or for the haters to dry their tears with.”
The unexpected rewards of the post - which came in the form of a swathe of new followers and sponsors galore - gave Spiranac the confidence to continue sharing risque photos on the platform.
But her pulse-raising social media content still irks many golf purists, although she insists there's nothing wrong with it.
The American defiantly said: "What I produce is not that provocative.
“If my body makes someone uncomfortable, that’s not my problem. I’m not doing anything illegal. I’m not causing harm.
"Maybe it is because I come off as every guy’s fantasy—a girl that loves golf and wears a bikini—but I see myself as a girl’s girl.
"I’m coming from an authentic place."

When pressed on her one-year stint on the pro circuit, Spiranac recalled: "From the start, it was a massive controversy I was there.
"There were pros, legends of the game, discussing if I belonged.
“People were taking bets about whether I would come in last. I’m this kid who has no experience, no media training.
"I completely bombed, publicly cried about it. It was a s*** show."
