Well, today I’m gonna talk about something that’s been on my mind for a while – Amy Mickelson and Michael Jordan. Yeah, you heard that right, the golfer’s wife and the basketball legend. Sounds weird, but there’s actually a bit of a story there. It all started when I was looking into some old articles about Phil Mickelson.
I dug into Phil’s early days, you know, back when he was at Arizona State University. That’s where he met Amy, who was a junior when he was a senior. I found this book Phil wrote, “One Magical Sunday,” and it mentioned how they first met. They’ve been together ever since, which is pretty cool.
Then, I stumbled upon this thing about Phil possibly joining Michael Jordan’s exclusive golf club. Checked some articles that I found on the internet and remembered one article said, “Mickelson chats with Michael Jordan during the Presidents Cup in San Francisco”. So, I thought maybe that’s where the Amy and Michael connection comes in.
Amy and Michael Jordan
- I started looking into whether Amy and Michael ever crossed paths.
- Found some mentions of them both being at events where Phil and Jordan were playing golf.
- Read through some reports about Jordan meeting his wife, Yvette Prieto, back in 2008 at a nightclub in Miami. No connection there, but it got me thinking.
- Thought about how Amy, being Phil’s wife, would naturally be around these high-profile events.
- Realized that there might be some casual interactions between Amy and Michael at these golf tournaments.
- Dug deeper into events like the Presidents Cup where both Phil and Jordan were present. Speculated about how Amy might have been introduced to Jordan through Phil.
- Considered the social circles of professional athletes and how they often intersect. Assumed Amy and Michael probably know each other through these circles.
- Noticed how the media sometimes links people together just because they’re at the same events. Concluded that’s likely what happened here.
So, after all this digging, I realized there’s probably no big story here. Just two famous people connected through their spouses’ professions. But it was a fun little research project, and it showed me how easily you can connect the dots between people in the sports world.
Anyway, that’s my little exploration of Amy Mickelson and Michael Jordan. It was more about the journey of finding these little connections and realizing how small the world of professional sports can be. Just goes to show, sometimes the most interesting stories are the ones that aren’t really stories at all.
