Golf’s worst ever outfits, as Jason Day makes fashion faux pas at The Masters in garish Malbon Championship vest

TO be a golfer, and get on the course in the first place, you must be well turned out.

Wrong! In these cases, the pros committed a fashion faux pas that left us scratching our heads.

Jason Day is the latest to shock us with his choice of outfit at The Masters.

The 2015 PGA Championship winner donned a shocking Malbon Golf Championship vest as he made his way around the Augusta National.

But his choice of top is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to these guys who seriously let themselves down.

What are they wearing?

John Daly

Right, so maybe we can excuse the first one.

Daly is as mad, wacky and fun as golf gets – from holding week-long parties at Hooters to smoking while playing.

He’s also completely bonkers when it comes to his fashion choices.

At the US Senior Open, he sported a pair of red trousers with leaf patterns emblazoned in green, black and yellow.

The same year, his pop art-like pants, featuring hot dogs and ice cream sundaes really took us by surprise, while leaving us hungry for an American diner.

The next day, he opted for some spotty red trousers, which were equally as offensive.

Team USA’s Ryder Cup team

Took about revelling in your own success.

In 1999, Team USA’s Ryder Cup team went full on narcissist – wearing a shirt with framed images of past winners.

They were burgundy, ill-fitting, and simply vile.

The Battle of Brookline was shaded by the Americans by a margin of 141⁄2 to 131⁄2.

Ian Poulter

The English golfer is sadly missing from The Masters this year, otherwise we might just get treated to another eye sore.

Poulter is renowned for being an eccentric dresser.

He is also known for being a mad Arsenal supporter, which prompted him to wear a Gunners shirt at the 2006 Abu Dhabi Golf Championship.

But it was much worse a year earlier at the 2005 Masters Par-3 Contest.

He looked more like a maitre d’ of a famous restaurant, then pro golfer.

That same year he was equally as disastrous with his choice of clobber.

Jarmo Sandelin

The Swede had five European Tour wins and played in the 1999 Ryder Cup in his prime.

He was also massively into fancy dress, if these outfits are anything to be believed.

At the 2001 Scandinavian Masters, he wore shades that made him look like The Terminator.

Then, two years later at the European Masters he wore a shirt befitting of a 1970s dance party, and wore a hat that looked like a wig of Rod Stewart’s 1980s hairdo. True story.

Rickie Fowler

Rickie Fowler went full on satsuma for this ensemble at the 2010 Memorial.

It was provided by sponsor Puma, and was incredibly eye-opening and bright.

However, there was a sweet reason for it based on tradition.

“I started doing that while I was in school. Obviously not many guys wear orange, so it was a way to be my own man out where,” the American once remarked about his color choice.

“A few of my Oklahoma State teammates wore the same colors, so at the time it was a bit of a bonding thing.

“But nobody really does it on Tour. I like to think of it as my own personal style.”

Duffy Waldorf

Obviously, spikes in the clubhouse is a no-no.

So is wearing jeans, with snooty golf establishments very tight when it comes to a dress code.

However, dressing in a Hawaiian shirt you would wear while manning a barbecue is allowed apparently.

That’s precisely what American Waldorf did.

Rory Sabbatini

Easy, cowboy. Yes, really.

The South African-Slovak won six times on the PGA Tour between 2000 and 2011, and was runner-up in the 2007 Masters.

But at the 2011 Honda Classic he looked like he was auditioning for a role on Dallas.

A cowboy hat, complete with a skull belt buckle wasn’t a look for when you’re playing 18 holes.

To be fair, though, it didn’t affect his performance and he ending up winning the tournament.
