About this listen
Michael Phelps, the most decorated Olympian ever with 28 medals, just made waves in golf circles as a Scottsdale resident committing to his 11th WM Phoenix Open Annexus Pro-Am on February 4, 2026, at TPC Scottsdale. WM Phoenix Open officials announced the news, pairing the swimming legend with PGA Tour pros alongside stars like Travis Kelce, Zach Top, and Merrill Kelly for a star-studded showcase that amps up tournament week buzz. This regular gig underscores Phelps enduring Arizona ties and his shift from pool to fairway celebrity status, a biographical footnote with legs given the events massive fan draw.
Meanwhile, the LA startup The Skills spotlighted Phelps in its five million dollar seed round reveal last Friday, dot.LA reports, hyping his gold medal lessons on their platform alongside Maria Sharapova and Kerri Walsh Jennings. Courses cover techniques, leadership, and injury recovery, positioning Phelps as a mentor icon in sports edtech with real long-term ripple for his post-retirement brand.
Hes popping up in auctions too, with his 2004 Athens accreditation hitting RR Auctions winter sale ending February 19, bundled with LeBron James gear for collectors eyeing Olympic relics. Time magazine dubbed speedskater Jordan Stolz the next Phelps of winter sports ahead of 2026 Milano Cortina, nodding to his multi-event dominance, while an older Australian Open clip resurfaced showing Phelps stunned by Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic with Ariarne Titmus.
No fresh public sightings, business deals, or social mentions surfaced in the last few days from verified outlets, though his NASCAR relative Steve Phelps exit news confused some feeds. All confirmed, no whispers of drama. Phelps stays the steady force, blending legacy tees with timeless inspiration.
