Ring Around The Collar

Here in Geezerville, where I live, there are two (2) nice golf courses that compare favorably with both country club courses in Amarillo, the country club course in Midland, and a country club course in Alpharetta (GA). I am dropping names here, but in my brief fling with the game of golf, I have played at my share of places that take the game seriously. The Geezerville golf courses, like the fancy places I have played, have a dress code. To wit: Proper golf apparel is required. Shirts with collars must be worn by men at all times.... Yada, yada, yada.



-Sun City Texas Community Directory, p. 19.

Now the Augusta National Club where the Master's Golf Tournament is played is far more restrictive than ANY country club or public golf course in Texas. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Eldrick (Tiger) Woods playing the final round of the tournament in a collarless T-shirt! Full disclosure: I was reprimanded by one of the underlings on the golf course staff here in Geezerville when I showed up for a short iron clinic in a long-sleeved T-shirt. However, if a collarless shirt is good enough for Eldrick Woods at Augusta National, where the hell do the wannabes in Geezerville get off? If this is (fair & balanced) heat under the collar, so be it.



Where is Tiger's shirt collar; doesn't Augusta National have a dress code? Posted by Hello
