2017 Open Championship

Jason Day looks like he's snuck in from a local holiday camp site.
Horrendous outfit .............. he looks like a tramp.
 
Crivvens! I really hope they don't catch on. R&A should have a quiet word.:mmm:

I really dont see the issue with JDay or Rickie Fowler wearing these styles of outfit? What has what they are wearing have to do with anything? Not everyone has to wear what Thomas is wearing. Its these old school views that stop the younger people wanting to play golf IMO.
 
Guess it's only been about a year since people started wearing them - maybe longer. It's now part of the Nike clothing line up and plentyof golfers have worn them

They look like a bunch of clowns with those get ups on but they chose to wear it. They will look back on it someday and regret it (after they've spent the thousands they got for wearing it)
 
You know what I miss... That silly driving distance game that was on the Open website for ages a couple of years back. Anyone know if its still online somewhere?

I wonder how much flexibility they have in their contracts to pick and choose what they wear. Find it hard to believe anyone chooses to leave the house looking like that far less going on worldwide TV!
 
You think kids don't play golf because they can't wear jogging bottoms and high tops?

So to get some perspective, how old are you, I know how old all the other old gits are 

No but just look at the crowds that are following Fowler, He attracts the younger crowds, and they are always big. People who have the old school views of "You have to wear a collar, you have to wear specific trousers, you cant wear those shoes because they look like trainers" do you think that those views encourage young golfers?

Im 25.
