A few weeks ago, a picture of Phil Mickelson’s calves went viral.
The 48-year-old uploaded a picture of himself practising in his shorts after the PGA Tour relaxed its dress code policy for pro-am and practice rounds.
The @PGATOUR just announced that shorts are allowed for pro-am and practice rounds. Word is they saw my Insta-structionals in shorts and felt this move needed to happen. Well played, Sir. Well played!pic.twitter.com/vGCM36EoEF

Phil, they’re gorgeous calves.
