Golf influencer Paige Spiranac is making her own bid in the hot dog eating competition this week.
Spiranac, who has millions of followers across multiple social media platforms, revealed his plans at X on Tuesday as Americans prepare to see grown men eat lots of hot dogs at Coney Island in New York and cook some on grills themselves.

“I'm doing it. I'm really doing it,” he wrote. “I'm trying to see how many hot dogs I can eat in 10 minutes again this year. What do you think?”
Spiranac has put his name in the running to replace Joey Chestnut, who was forced to withdraw from Major League Eating's premier contest this July 4 holiday due to his sponsorship with Impossible Foods.
She then posted a video she found of herself eating six hot dogs in 10 minutes.
