Celebrities use social media to promote their sponsoring brands. They always try to come up with unique ideas to do so. Such a post from Phil Mickelson is making his fans crazy for a lot of reasons. 

It took years for the golf legend to get back to his form and win a major. However, when he did it, Phil became the only player to win a major in his 50s. Mickelson underwent many diet programs and extreme exercises to compete with the young golfers. 

Recently, he posted a photo of him playing Pickleball and sporting his favorite brand, Brady Brand, an apparel brand by Tom Brady. Pickleball is a sport similar to ping-pong but played on a tennis court. 

Although Mickelson intended to promote the brand, fans were interested in the pictures.
