Yeah, yeah, the family says they "join Phil for Tuesday night karate back in San Diego" - all the time he allegedly does taekwondo and kung fu. But hey - this is the home of Confuse-Us after all!
Story:
Apparently, (top golfer) Phil Mickelson was going to work out. Yes, that Phil Mickelson, the guy you once cheered for because his beer belly could rival yours.
In fact, on the night before he would begin defense of his 2006 Masters championship, Mickelson was going to do more than just work out. He was going to practice kung fu.
"I would classify him as between a brown and a black belt now," says Mickelson's personal trainer who was with him on Wednesday. "He's getting pretty good."
Mickelson has believed in the martial arts as a part of his training regimen for golf since he started working with a personal trainer. It helps his balance, flexibility and core strength.
The trainer says they have added kung fu into Mickelson's repertoire this year, instead of just tae kwon do. Kung fu teaches more punches and hand techniques to go along with the many kicks Mickelson already knows.
