Michael Phelps, also known as the “Baltimore Bullet,” caused waves during his five remarkable Olympic games winning the most medals. Many have questioned if Phelps’ commitment to his hobby will lead him to become a golf pro, given his smooth transition from the pool to the course. Among his many Pro-Am appearances, last year’s WM Phoenix Open, which coincided with the Super Bowl, was one impressive one.

Now the excitement is building for the February scheduled tournament returning for its 12th year with the swimming great on its initial guest list. A likely partnership with a high-profile brand worth $7.4 million adds to the anticipation signaling at Phelps’s next appearance at the Waste Management Phoenix Open.

Michael Phelps hints at next fashionable appearance

There’s an intriguing edge to Phelps’s appearance—a hint to his fashionable presence this year—as fans excitedly tally the times he displays his golfing skills in the highly anticipated WM Phoenix Open. Phelps recently posted an Instagram story that drew interest showing off his stunning white golf shoes with a sky-blue sole. He tagged the unique brand G/FORE, which was founded by Mossimo Giannulli, and accompanied the picture with #moss.

Not only is Mossimo Giannulli, sometimes referred to as “Moss,” the creator of G/FORE but also a keen golfer. In contrast to the typical white gloves worn on the course, the brand debuted in 2011 with a vibrant assortment of golf gloves. G/FORE has been more well-known over time, as seen by the colorful golf gloves worn by celebrities like musician Adam Levine and Hall of Famer Tom Watson. Phelps’s partnership with this cutting-edge company gives his golf character a dash of flair and style, piquing fans’ curiosity about the potential collaboration while others simply await his return at Annexus-sponsored Pro-Am.

The previous Phoenix Open pursuits

Phelps is a gifted athlete with skills that are evident on the golf course. His flexible pickleball in Phoenix, Arizona, two years back remains a core memory for many. While last year’s Waste Management Phoenix Open, where he won a charity game, stole the show, his incredible drive on the renowned par-3 16th hole at TPC Scottsdale – which finished only 8’5″ from the pin – helped raise an impressive $40,000.
