Paige Spiranac giddy over Rory McIlroy-Bryson DeChambeau Masters showdown

Paige Spiranac could hardly contain her excitement Saturday with the stage set for an epic Masters conclusion between Rory McIlroy and Bryson DeChambeau.

Taking to X, the longtime golf influencer, 32, flashed her pearly whites in a new photo after McIlroy and DeChambeau finished atop the leaderboard at 12-under and 10-under, respectively, following Saturday’s third round at Augusta National.

“Mood when you get to watch Rory and Bryson in the final group tomorrow at The Masters,” Spiranac wrote alongside the smiley snap.

McIlroy, a four-time major champion, stormed back into the competition Friday with a bogey-free 66 in the second round after melting down during two of the final four holes Thursday.

He double-bogeyed on holes No. 15 and No. 17 to close out the opening round with an even 72.

McIlroy dialed it up again Saturday when he shot six consecutive 3s to open the third round. He bogeyed on hole Nos. 8 and 10 before carding a 66 to place him as the solo leader.

As for DeChambeau, the reigning U.S. Open champion who bested McIlroy at Pinehurst last summer, he posted a 69 on Saturday, making birdie six times while bogeying three.

The LIV Golf star, whose best finish at Augusta was in 2024 when he tied for sixth, said Saturday he “couldn’t ask for anything more” with the final round.

“It’ll be the grandest stage we’ve had in a long time and I’m really excited for it,’’ DeChambeau said. “We both want to win really badly. It’s going to be electric out there.”

Months before the Masters began, Spiranac — who has been living it up at Augusta this week — told The Post that McIlroy was her pick to win this year’s green jacket.

“I say this every single year, but Rory is going to win the green jacket,” she said in February. “It will hit one year, I swear, I promise.”

McIlroy and DeChambeau will tee off at 2:30 p.m.
