Johnson, 48, could be heard shouting "f**k off" in frustration during the tournament in Augusta.
It came after supporters appeared to react sarcastically when he finally finished the hole.
The American's outburst caused the commentator to gasp and some suggested that it was yelled at the patrons watching on.
Golf influencer Spiranac, 31, has now taken to social media to lend her thoughts on the matter.

She claimed that Johnson was "softer than baby poop" if he is finding the environment difficult to play in.
She posted: "The patrons at Augusta are unbelievably supportive and mild-mannered.
"You can’t find a more pleasant environment to play golf in.
"The fact ZJ said this proves he’s softer than baby poop. Such a bad look."

He said: "That’s laughable. That’s completely laughable.
