The attempted assassination of former President Trump left an indelible mark on all Americans this month, including sports figures across the U.S.
Several current and former athletes called for unity in the United States, no matter what side of the aisle politically they were on. U.S. Open champion Bryson DeChambeau was among those in the golf world who spoke out, saying there was no room for violence in the world.
Golf influencer Paige Spiranac echoed DeChambeau’s thoughts in an interview with Fox News Digital.
“It was incredibly sad and there should never be a point where violence takes over, and I am hopeful that this will spark a conversation [in which] you can have differences, but you can talk to one another in a way that is efficient, and we can use our words, and we can hear one another out, and we can be respectful of one another,” she said.
