Masters Golf and Any Other Miscellaneous Golf Discussion

After nearly 500 starts (well 478) on the European Tour, Richard Bland finally won his first tournament at age 48. Worth a read and watch perhaps:

Now he’s the co-leader of the US Open a month later.

Well if they’re working stiffs they might actually be out golfing right?

Also, it’s US Open week.

Yeah I’m always interested in how Amy does but generally more interested in the men’s majors, even if the US Open is my least fave…

Here is what you will probably think is a dumb question from a non golfer, but here goes.
Do golf tournaments have dress codes like tennis?

For players or spectators?

I know the masters has a dress code for spectators

I was thinking players. They seem to all wear somewhat similar clothing. Although I know they allowed knickers:)

PGA Tour is quite rigid for players. Players must wear long pants and collared shirts. Obviously golf spikes are worn by choice.

Caddies are allowed to wear shorts and athletic shoes but must have collared shirts and sleeves. Augusta National will require caddies to wear the white coveralls.

For fans at all tournaments it’s mostly “no shirt, no shoes, no entry”. Naturally, Speedos and thongs are strictly verboten regardless of gender.

Thanks. I was watching today and it just seemed the
Players always look nicely dressed. Of course they are on tv and golf is a gentle person sport, but there’s always that one person…

They say the smaller the ball, the more civilized the sport. Ok, maybe.
