This note is motivated by Y.G. Oh's conjecture that the Clifford torus $L_n$ in $\mathbb{C}P^n$ minimizes volume in its Hamiltonian deformation class. We show that there exist explicit positive constants $a_n$ depending on the dimension with $a_2=3/\pi$ such that for any Lagrangian torus $L$ in the Hamiltonian class of $L_n$ we have $vol(L) \geq a_n vol (L_n)$. The proof uses the recent work of C.H. Cho on Floer homology of the Clifford tori. A formula from integral geometry enables us to derive the estimate. We wish to point out that a general lower bound on the volume of $L$ exists from the work of C. Viterbo. Our lower bound $a_2= 3/\pi$ is the best one we know.
