Swinging with style: Top-5 ‘Best Dressed Golfers’ on the PGA Tour


By Fernie Ruano Jr.

If you make a living as a PGA golfer, chances are you have game.

From hitting a 300-yard drive with ease to routinely being armed with blue-eyed blondes; most of the golfers in Doral for the 2015 WGC Cadillac Championship, starting with Thursday’s first round, are the envy of weekend hackers everywhere.

But just because most golfers are blessed with stylish swings doesn’t necessarily mean they’re on top of their games when it comes to looking their best on the course, John Daly’s pajama pants included. But for every color-uncoordinated golfer, like Daly, there’s a ‘classic’ wardrobe champion like Bubba Watson

 Here are the ‘Top 5 Best Dressed Golfers’ on the PGA Tour.

BUBBA WATSON: Watson, last year’s Doral runner-up, has not only made it cool to look classic on the golf course, but has developed his own style with those awesome high-buttoned shirts, white leather belts and white shoes. Watson, who definitely makes Oakley look good and in four starts this season has three top-10 finishes, also has a tendency to sport a really funky Richard Mille Swiss watch valued at $500,000.. So, don’t lose track of time kids because Bubba .. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1600203-masters-champ-bubba-watson-still-wears-500000-watch-because-he-is-awesome

IAN POULTER:  You have to respect a man who not only plays on the PGA Tour and European Tour, but doesn’t think twice about wearing multi-color plaid pants and traditional knickers with zipper polo shirts. Poulter’s awesome hair also flows nicely through his visors. Dude experiments with his look and just doesn’t give a crap what you think, which makes him a player in my book.. http://old.seattletimes.com/html/sherrygrindeland/2001983744_grin20e.html

JIMMY WALKER: If Walker, who came out of nowhere to win three PGA events in 2013-14, continues to make strides the Texas-native won’t have to worry about being confused with the Good Times comedian.  Sporting Iliac Golf since 2013, Walker always looks sporty, but a tad sophisticated especially in white plants and black polo shirts with white collars. Jimmy ‘The Golfer’ keeps it traditional while pushing the envelope, kind of like the other Jimmy.. http://www.golfdigest.com/blogs/the-loop/2014/02/the-company-that-dresses-jimmy.html

RORY MCLLROY: Rory does wanders with a little white ball and definitely puts style in the swoosh with chic and colorful Nike outfits, which include a variety of stripped polo shirts and light-colored pants. And he always tops it off with a colorful and coordinated hat, adding an innovative coolness to his wardrobe. Rory always makes a statement with his choice of clothes, albeit a very refreshing statement. http://www.golfchannel.com/news/equipment-insider/pga-fashion-mcilroy-favorite-my-favorite/

JUSTIN THOMAS: Thomas isn’t playing Doral, but the former University of Alabama golfer will probably be fielding calls from GQ for featured print ads sooner than later, especially with his preference for a preppy Polo Ralph Lauren look in which he mixes and matches green, purple and white solids and strips nicely, not just your ordinary red and blue. He keeps it cool, but with a touch of All-American class..http://www.pgatour.com/style-report/2015/02/18/style-insider-golf-apparel-stylish-newcomers-rookies-pga-tour-2014-2015-season.html
