The American combined with Xander Schauffele to shoot 62 in the opening round, matching the lowest-ever 18 holes in a Major set in 2017.
Fowler’s blistering start had fans bombarding Paige’s DMs, due to a fake tweet that has previously done the rounds.
In the fabricated post, the 30-year-old appeared to write: “I’ll do a boob reveal when Rickie Fowler wins a Major.”
After being hounded by social media users, Paige addressed the bogus tweet, writing: “A meme account posted a fake tweet awhile ago and now people are blowing up my DMs!
“This is not true so don’t get your hopes up.
“But I did pick Rickie as a long shot so at least I have that going for me lol.”
In response to Paige’s post, one follower joked: “Its on the internet it has to be true.”
To which the influencer responded: “The amount of people who think this is real is concerning lol.”
Paige loves to give her golf takes on social media
She denied claims that she will strip off if Rickie Fowler wins a Major
Last month, Paige predicted that the fake tweet would come back to “haunt” her.
After being asked about the speculation during an Instagram Q&A, she said: “This is going to haunt me. A couple of years ago this fake meme came out.
“It was a picture of me with a quote that said ‘if Rickie wins I will let the girls come out and play’. Not true.
“I get tagged in so much Rickie stuff and I’m surprised he has not blocked me.
“It’s all fake, not true, not real and that meme needs to just disappear forever, be deleted.”
Seemingly unbothered by the online chat, Fowler got his campaign off to a brilliant start yesterday.
After his day one birdie blitz, he said: “I knew it was close. I wasn’t sure of the exact number. I was really just trying to keep moving forward.
“I made a lot of good swings and it’s been a while since I’ve made some mid-range putts, so it was nice to make a lot of those.”
