Paige Spiranac has hit out at the "brutal" pace of play at The Masters Tournament via her Instagram Story. 

While Spiranac did not mention any specific names, she did point fingers at the AimPoint putting technique, which is used by the likes of Viktor Hovland, Max Homa and Keegan Bradley.

Spiranac recently ripped into Bradley over taking his time over a four-foot putt.

AimPoint allows a golfer to read greens using their feet to determine the slope percentage of a given putt.

Golf social media sensation Spiranac, who attended Augusta in person last week, said: 

"Oh, it was brutal. I was out there and it was even worse in person.
"The new look AimPoint on one-footers, I understand they're playing for a lot of money, it's a major, I get it... but it goes against the spirit of the game of golf to play slow and it's bad sportsmanship so I think they need to make an example of some of the players.
"Throw some penalties out there, do something, but it's not okay, I've always been against slow pace of play and playing against slow players, and then also watching it... they need to do something about it."

Have your say on AimPoint Putting in our latest Twitter poll: 

Spiranac's views echoed that of LIV Golf's Brooks Koepka, who hit out at the group in front of him in the final round. 

After finishing joint runner-up to Masters champion Jon Rahm, four-time major champion Koepka said: 

"Yeah, the group in front of us was brutally slow. Jon went to the bathroom like seven times during the round, and we were still waiting."

Thousands of golf fans took to Twitter on Sunday night to berate the pace of play set by Patrick Cantlay, who was playing alongside Hovland in the group that Koepka was referring to in the final round. 

On the 13th hole, Hovland could not wait any longer for Cantlay!
