Did 'Samson' just cut off his hair?
SPOTLIGHT: Did you ever wonder what World Cup-winning Springbok scrumhalf Francois de Klerk will look like without his long, flowing blond locks?
Wonder no more.
The 29-year-old appears to have cut his hair ahead of the Premiership semifinal - when his team, Sale Sharks, will travel to Sandy Park in Devon to face the Exeter Chiefs on Saturday.
A picture of De Klerk, minus his trademark hair, started to appear on social media on Wednesday.
The source/origin and authenticity of the picture could not be determined - as it appeared nowhere on the social media accounts of @fafdeklerk, @SaleSharksRugby or @premrugby.
It did not stop social media from exploding in reaction.
In earlier media posts on the Sale Sharks pages, De Klerk still sported his flowing locks while previewing the play-offs.
