We all know golf legend Phil Mickelson has been body-shamed in the past, a painful reminder that even athletes aren’t immune to criticism in terms of physical attributes. But Mickelson has silenced his haters with an incredible weight loss transformation, shedding 15 pounds through intermittent fasting and a special coffee blend recipe. It’s amazing to see the 54-year-old golfer looking fitter, stronger, and more radiant than ever, especially after enduring years of unwanted attention about his physique.

But this year, Phil Mickelson achieved his ultimate stature of looking younger as he shut down his haters by wearing joggers and absolutely rocking them! As the 54-year-old golf legend proved, age is just a number when it comes to style. He credits Grant Horvat for the inspiration, and we can’t deny the results, he looks dashing, to say the least. But more importantly, according to the golfer, the joggers made him feel young. “As an unfashionable 54-year-old, I never thought I could pull off wearing joggers. Guess I was wrong 🤷‍♂ Thank you @granthorvat we both won 😂😂 #forwellness #hyflyers #primo”, he wrote as the caption.

In the latest YouTube video from Rough Cut Golf, Grant Horvat spills the beans about Phil Mickelson’s infamous joggers at The Open. Horvat recalls the hilarious moment when Mickelson donned Primo joggers, paired with Jordans, and completely rocked the look. It all happened when Mickelson’s epic bet with Grant Horvat stole the show at The Open. The challenge? Rocking Primo joggers for two days. But Mickelson took it up a notch, wearing them all four days!

Horvat jokingly praises Mickelson’s bold fashion choice, saying it took years off his appearance. “It’s like the one where he followed through with the joggers, but for like the first half of the round, he had waterproof trousers on”, he continued.  It wasn’t just about the joggers, though. Mickelson paired them with waterproof trousers (yes, even when it wasn’t raining) and Jordans. Talk about commitment! The crowd loved it, and Mickelson’s confidence shone through. Who knew joggers could make a 50-something golfer look younger? “I fully concur with Phil’s choice to wear waterproof trousers for a few days. I think he tried the joggers on, maybe looked at himself in the mirror, and I think he actually enjoyed what he was seeing. It does take years off you, yeah, yeah. I mean, it made him look younger”, he said.

Horvat shares that Mickelson’s jogger-clad appearance generated massive interest, with fans eagerly anticipating his outfits each day. The unconventional choice became a talking point, and Horvat believes it was a win for Mickelson, who pulled off the look with style. Horvat’s lighthearted commentary offers a glimpse into the endearing side of professional golf, showcasing Mickelson’s willingness to poke fun at himself and have fun with his fashion choices. But how did he lose all the weight?

Phil Mickelson’s amazing physical transformation

Phil Mickelson’s transformation is truly inspiring. The golf legend’s battle with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis made him realize the importance of health and wellness, leading to an impressive weight loss journey. After shedding 25 pounds through intermittent fasting, Mickelson focused on rebuilding his muscle mass. His aggressive speed-training regimen included strength, power, speed endurance, and technique development, as well as squats, stretches, and weightlifting.

Mickelson’s diet played a crucial role in his transformation. His intermittent fasting regime included only consuming water and his special coffee blend for 5-6 days. A few years back he had shared that coffee saved his career, citing its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Mickelson’s weight fluctuated, but his break from the 2022 PGA Championship allowed him to refocus on health and golf. His new physique enabled him to compete with renewed speed and agility, culminating in his 2021 PGA Championship victory. What do you think about the golfer’s amazing transformation?
