Oscar Wilde once said, “Beauty is the only thing that time cannot harm.” He was, of course, referencing the hideous shirt John Daly wore en route to winning the 1994 BellSouth Classic. The Ugly Golf Shirt is as much a staple of the game as Tiger Woods’ knack for the dramatic, a hot dog at Read more…
Close your eyes and picture a golfer. Are you imagining the human equivalent of a single man’s “laundry chair ” piled with polyester? It’s hard to blame you. For certain periods of time, golf’s redeeming qualities in style were nearly non-existent. Form and function need not combine, most golfers thought. However, a new spotlight on Read more…
There’s nothing wrong with going for it. We live in the age of 400-yard drives and par 5s in two after all. Yet these days too many tour players lay up while getting dressed. The golfers listed here, however, waited for the green to clear, took big swings and sent some worm-burners skipping through the Read more…
Golf style is having a moment. Rounds played are up 20 percent since the pandemic with increases in play among young people, women and people of color. This surge is fueling in part a greater democratization in golf fashion with influences from the street, skateboarding and hip-hop. Golfwear makers are also borrowing from their contemporaries Read more…
It’s always rather intriguing to see what the best golfers in the world choose to wear on their feet as they trek some of golf’s most challenging conditions.

When we opened our store, Malbon Golf, on Fairfax Avenue in Los Angeles in 2017, we were warned that golf was a dying sport, that a golf boutique in this location was never going to work. But we are each stubborn and headstrong and trusted that more people like us would see the future of Read more…
The season isn’t half over, but Keith Mitchell wins Golf Digest’s Best Dressed of 2024. If the PGA Tour created such an award, you can bet it’d be remunerative. (Sorry, Cashmere Keith, but our editorial team doesn’t have outsize “financial reserves” to play with, so all you got was this photoshoot.) Now in his seventh Read more…
“A tradition unlike any other”, a phrase echoed every April — The Masters is golf’s most prestigious week. Masters lore is comprised of its pristine, turf-like Bermuda grass (that’s practically a symphony of greenish hues), blossoming azaleas denoting that spring golf has officially arrived, and budget-friendly concession items that have become world-famous. But the visual Read more…
If you look at images of Tiger Woods from the 1990s, you’ll notice that everything he wore was a little big on him. This was mostly the work of his father, Earl, who sized up himself, leaving Tiger swimming in hand-me-downs early on in his amateur career. I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Read more…
Have you ever wondered what it would take you to win the Masters? A recent study published by Sports Handle assessed data going back to 1934 to find such crucial details like which star sign (Pisces), height (5-foot-9), and nationality (American) were most likely to predict a winner. In case your birth chart and certificates Read more…
The man has won five Masters so this might seem like it’s old hat, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. For instance, Tiger Woods has … a new hat. After a pretty good run with Nike, the golf legend has taken his talents to TaylorMade and ultimately Sun Day Red. A huge move Read more…
For those lucky enough to attend the Masters, the merchandise centers are a great way to commemorate the trip and bring home keepsakes for those back home unable to attend. Our editors are experts at ffinding the best mementos, so we asked them to share their favorite items collected over the years. More From Golf Read more…
Nike’s annual golf shoe release ahead of the Masters is always highly anticipated.
