The pro golfer is currently playing at the LIV Golf Team Championship. During the Captains’ Selection Press Conference, Mickelson was asked a steamy question.

To be precise, the moderator asked Mickelson whether he is going to be wearing shorts this week to intimidate Cameron with his calves.

Phil replied, “Well, there’s no intimidating. He’s Champion Golfer of the Year. He’s got the Claret Jug. I think he was sipping out of it last night. I mean, that’s a strong flex. Nothing that a calf can do to top that. He’s got the Claret Jug. That’s the coolest moment, to have that trophy for a year is really special. I think that it’s a great opportunity for me to be able to try to compete against the Champion Golfer of the Year. I look forward to it. It’ll be fun.”

Phil discusses his early struggles with social media

Mickelson’s magnetic personality extends beyond golf. The professional golfer is also still a huge internet sensation.

However, things have not always been easy for Lefty in the world of social media. Mickelson admitted in an interview that he struggled in his early years of social media use.

Phil said, “I was scared to go on social media because, first of all, I have a very addictive personality. So, I can go overboard and not keep it in balance. When I first started, I had help and it was frustrating for me. So I just have taken it over myself and I try to keep it in balance. Every now and then, I’ll get a text from some guys on my team like ‘Hey, what are you doing, man? Take that down’ and I’m okay with that. I try to keep everything as positive as I can.”

Mickelson’s admission that he struggled in the early years of his social media use is likely to resonate with many of us. On the other hand, Phil has become a social media sensation over time. Phil Mickelson has most likely finally figured out how to use social media effectively.
