The Open: Billy Horschel leads 3 finest, worst dressed golfers

The Open Championship is formally over as Xander Schauffele is the Champion Golfer of the 12 months.

Nonetheless, did he land on both the most effective or worst-dressed checklist?

Whatever the situations, many gamers wore some improbable outfits whereas others missed the mark.

As we did after Friday’s spherical, we offered the three finest and three worst-dressed gamers to do one thing enjoyable for The Open.

Keep in mind, golf vogue is subjective. No reply is right; it’s all concerning the individual’s perspective. Some folks will just like the worst-dressed appears, whereas others will hate among the best-dressed choices.

These six have been hand-picked by me, the Enjoying By golf vogue professional.

The scores are for the general week, not simply the outfit highlighted, so hold that in thoughts. The one offered, although, is my favourite.

Let’s get into The Open Championship’s three finest and worst-dressed gamers.

Greatest-dressed gamers from the Open Championship:

Daniel Brown was the Cinderella story of the 152nd Open Championship. He stayed on this checklist for his Friday outfit and consistency all through the week.

I nonetheless can’t get his puffy vest off my thoughts. Mixing the 2 textures was so interesting to the attention.

Brown misplaced factors as a result of, by the ultimate spherical, it felt boring — nonetheless trendy, however nonetheless, boring.

Ranking: 8/10 for the week

2. Justin Rose

Justin Rose sits No. 2 on the best-dressed checklist. He introduced one thing each single day, however after seeing his burgundy pullover on Sunday, he stayed put in his rating. The one factor I want was totally different for him on Sunday could be the material of the pullover. It appeared like a efficiency cloth, however it might have been good if it have been knit.

His Nike sneakers go together with all the things and I like that fashionable contact to his traditional fashion.

Ranking: 9.5/10

1. Billy Horschel

Billy Horschel could have completed runner-up on the leaderboard, however when it comes to fashion, he’s No. 1. The cardigan paired with the darkish navy pants and striped polo was a improbable selection for Sunday. RLX tailor-made the cardigan to his physique completely, robotically making it a top-rated match.

I just like the stripe polo beneath it as a result of it provides a contact of texture and makes it a bit of extra fashionable. The white sneakers and navy hat pull all of it collectively.

His rain gear look on Saturday was additionally a vibe.

Solely Sure folks can pull off the backward hat look, and Horschel is one in all them. This week could also be about custom, however turning that hat round makes the rain gear look cooler.

I might not change a factor about his scripting this week for The Open, besides perhaps throw in a pink or crimson to spice it up. Regardless, it was an ideal vogue week for Horschel.

Ranking: 10/10

Worst Dressed Golfers on the Open Championship

Xander Schauffele received the match, nevertheless it appears he wears the identical factor each week. This all-black look shouldn’t be horrible, nevertheless it may match him higher, and the white stripes on the sneakers throw me off.

It wasn’t very attention-grabbing all week, however Schauffele shouldn’t be large into vogue. I would like to see him in a light-weight blue or inexperienced. These colours would look improbable on his pores and skin tone and significantly better than the neutrals he repeatedly wears.

Ranking: 5/10

2. Thriston Lawrence

Thriston Lawrence is one other who didn’t look dangerous however made some odd decisions. His Sunday match would have been on the best-dressed checklist if he had paired it with navy pants. The purple with the grey pants clashed, and it washed out the pullover. These two colours technically go collectively, however there are methods to make it higher.

The gray PING hat was additionally all incorrect. Lawrence ought to have worn a navy or black hat as a substitute. The sunshine grey simply made it bland.

Ranking: 4/10

1. Robert MacIntyre

After Robert MacIntyre’s matches on Thursday and Friday, I didn’t assume the patterns may worsen, however they did. Saturday’s feather sample was so ugly. Thank goodness he wore the impartial grey and black outfit on Friday as a result of that appeared higher than the primary three days mixed.

I don’t perceive why Nike put him in these polos, however they need to not have. Nobody ought to put on them. MacIntyre is younger, and his fashion ought to mirror that. Let’s put him in one thing else, Nike, as a result of the younger man now has two PGA Tour wins beneath his belt and deserves higher scripting.

Ranking: 2/10
