Michael Phelps’ Golf Game

phelps-pic02

Michael Phelps is the most decorated Olympian of all time, with 22 medals, including 18 Gold! As you may recall, Michael took part in the Golf Channel’s “The Haney Project” a while back after retiring from competitive swimming. With his new clubs from Ping, Michael went on to work with the famed ex-coach of Tiger Woods, Hank Haney, for the next six months! Despite Michael’s Olympic standard athleticism, we all know how little that actually plays into being good at golf!

Michael was struggling to break 100 on the golf course before working with Hank but an update from Golf Digest indicates that Michael is now shooting in the 80s! In the update from Golf Digest, Hank points out the few changes that made Michael a much better player! Despite the vast improvement that Michael has made in his golf game, Michael understands that shooting par and becoming a scratch golfer is not an overnight thing. He was quoted as saying golf is “probably the most humbling thing I’ve ever done, the most humbling sport I’ve ever done, the toughest thing I’ve ever done.” So much so that Michael Phelps may be pondering a return to the Olympics in Rio in 2016? Let the speculation and rumours begin!
