I am not sure that I have seen a professional golfer wear something that I have ever stopped and thought, yes I will buy that. Why do the golfers change into such stupid clothes when they walk out into the golf courses?
Sponsorships
Many of the highest ranking golfers will have sponsorships with the clothing companies and this means that they wear anything the company wants them too. Of course they do get a couple of million every single year because of it so perhaps turning up in those awful pink striped trousers is worth it.
Not Club Policy Surely
Many golf clubs will simply not accept people coming in with rubbish looking clothes on. In fact the top level clubs are against it entirely and may even stop you from playing golf for the day because of it.
Arrogance
Some of it is to do with the sport. For the richer people that play in the top clubs, wearing this kind of thing is simply just another way of showing off to the world, they are showing off how much money they have. It really is quite upsetting that this kind of thing goes on because golf is such a calming sport.
Laughable
Whenever I see my father walking out of the door on the way to play golf I have to say that along with the UPS batteries and 12v batteries for his golf trolleys I have to say that he looks absolutely ridiculous! It is a bit silly that golf clubs restrict people on what they are wearing, very silly indeed. I can understand them stopping people from wearing jeans and trainers as golf does have some levels of standards but making people wear stupid outfits has always been beyond me.
