I realized, that Tiger wears a hat with his TW logo on Thursday and Friday. But on the weekend he always (at majors) wears a hat with a Nike logo on the front. Here you can see his apperal for the 2012 PGA CHAMPIONSHIP.

And here is the apperal for the 2012 masters.

It's always the same thing at the majors. But at normal PGA TOUR tournaments he doesn't do that. Why? Does anybody know that?


Interesting find. Nike wants their flag flying high during the weekend rounds at majors when the viewers eyes are on. I realize TW is part of NIKE, but a smaller niche market.

I really can't think of any other reason than marketing.

Maybe his apparel will be synchronized with Rory, so Rory will be wearing black shoes one day and white the rest?

I find it weird that so much thought is put into this.  What I mean by that is, if I were the athlete in question, I'd want to be able to throw together an outfit the day before and be done with it.  I wouldn't want to have it planned out so far in advance and to this level.

I thought it was kind of weird until I saw people outside the ropes wearing the same outfits. It sells clothes.

Ha!  That's interesting.  Never thought about that.

Would you think how silly you would look in zebra striped shoes and polka dot shirts if you were paid $37,500.00 per day to wear them?

What......you wouldn't want your "scripting" documents weeks in advance of tournaments?

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Thats borderline creepy........I was recently told by a friend that as a grown man I looked ridiculous wearing a Niner jersey to a Niner game. Something about a man shouldnt wear another man's name on his back. (Sounds stupid to me) So now golf fans are matching outfits to their favorite players now?

I've never been into the jersey thing, but considering there was a stadium full of grown men wearing niner and packers jerseys when I went to the game last year, I'd say plenty of folks don't see an issue with it.  But this is more like stalking.

I haven't.  But being a Cincy Bearcat alumn... I love the Black and Red.

I've seen it a few times and not just Tiger's outfits. I've seen guys dressed like the TM/Adidas guys standing in the crowds on TV too. Can't say I'm crazy about Tiger's look so I wouldn't buy any of his stuff. Foley's Nike gear looks better to me.

    • Yeah, their experiences with the Edel stuff does NOT match my own. Golfers shouldn't need to practice alignment, and golfers can't align a line on a ball very accurately either. Just a bunch of hooey in those posts up there, IMO and experience.
    • The exact same for me. Although I think I was more like 20 inches right of the hole, but yeah, same thing.  I'm telling you, the LAB putter people are a cult. The only thing in golf I've ever seen similar to this is The PROV1 cult. "Raise your right and swear; I will only play PROV1's, no matter if my handicap is north of 30 and I loose 9 golf balls per round." They are like Starbucks fans or I-phone people who refuse to admit the competition might be better as some stuff.  I have very literally heard people at the driving range talking about putters and bringing up "The Revealer". Saying things like "Have you seen how much putter X spins in The Revealer? ... You gotta get a LAB putter."  The other thing I find fascinating is the number of people who say something like "LAB putters are individually custom built, they aren't massed produced. That's why they cost so much." It is as if everyone of them is as unique as a fingerprint. 🤷‍♂️ I gotta give LAB all the credit in the world. Their marketing department has done wonders. Image what "The Hammer" could have been if it had been marketed by LAB.  I haven't liked any of the LAB Putters I've tried. If you do like them, that's great. But please put down the Kool-Aid: Don't join the cult. 
    • I thought this was an interesting discussion about someone asking about how lines impact aiming and LAB creator’s response. They were specifically asking about an Edel fitting. I don’t know what he was expecting posting this in a LAB forum. Why would you want to have to “work” on your aiming or overcome an aiming issue? I go to the eye doctor every year and they’ve said for the past 10 years your eyesight hasn’t changed. Am I missing something when he says it “changes all the time”?    I did an Edel fitting and went from aiming a foot right to spot on. I don’t use a line on the ball any longer and can just step up and putt knowing where I’m looking and where I’m aiming match. It changed my whole perspective on putters. I’d be fearful now of buying a putter just based off what I think looks good because I’d always be worried if I’m aiming where I’m looking.
