Gary Player is taking off his clothes. All of them.
The 77-year-old Hall of Famer will pose nude in the upcoming ESPN The Magazine’s “Body Issue,” becoming the oldest athlete to bare all in the annual spread.
The other athletes who will appear in the July 12 issue include fellow golfer Carly Booth, NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, NBA player John Wall, MLB slugger Giancarlo Stanton and Olympic volleyball player Kerri Walsh Jennings.
After a lifetime dedicated to health & fitness I’m chuffed to be in @ESPNmag's Body Issue to hopefully inspire others to workout & live well

Last year, Suzann Pettersson became the sixth golfer to pose for the magazine, joining Belen Mozo, Christina Kim, Sandra Gal, Anna Grzebien and PGA Tour player Camilo Villegas.
