They say the smaller the ball, the more civilized the sport. Ok, maybe.
Golf is very civilized by design. Until the Ryder Cup. Then it gets marginally closer to regular sport because nationalism.

Addition to the dress code thing is that most all of the pro players have sponsors who have their logos plastered on the players attire. Of course those sponsors wish for that attire to be presentable. This tournament includes a number of amateurs (at the start at least) and naturally they have no sponsors and no free clothing.

There are also amateurs theoretically at any other “Open” competition as well as definitively by invitation at The Masters. As true fans we are all looking for the day when an amateur competitor captures one of these major titles. Should that occur it will be a massive day in sport. Books and movies will abound.
