10. Danny Willett (Descente & G/FORE)
First of all, the fit is spot on across the board. I love that the belt matches his pants. Finally, those G/FORE Branches Disruptors perfectly match the kit. A brilliant look for Pebble Beach, too.
9. Rafael Cabrera Bello (FootJoy)
Another winning look from the U.S. Open at Pebble Beach. RCB does bold colors better than anyone in golf. These custom Tour Pants in red caught my eye. The matching color blocking stripe on his Half-Zip Pullover was perfectly patriotic.
8. Rickie Fowler (PUMA Golf)
Every January I continue to look forward to PUMA Golf’s tropical-inspired collection. The Paradise Golf Shirt was a favorite of mine. If you haven’t seen it yet, check out the Rickie Fowler & PUMA Golf ten-year retrospective.
7. Billy Horschel (Ralph Lauren & FootJoy)
Is it any surprise that Billy Horschel makes this list? Twice, at that, and I could’ve included him a few more times! This Ralph Lauren polos’ all-over, diary-inspired print, with splashes of indigo was one of my favorites of the year.
6. Justin Thomas (Ralph Lauren & FootJoy)
This is all about the Polo Golf Merino Wool V-Neck Cardigan and contrasting green polo at the Waste Management Phoenix Open.
5. Sam Ryder (Greyson Clothiers)
Where it was all about the top half for JT, Sam Ryder’s lower half steals the show. The Greyson Magic Emporium Trousers paired with the G/FORE Brogue Kilties could easily have landed in the top spot.
4. Justin Thomas
Polo Golf x Justin Thomas Collection was released right in time for the U.S. Open. The showcase piece was the Camo Star Printed Trousers; for good reason. Justin paired them with a version of the RLX Stretch Wool Golf Jacket that incorporated the blue from the pants on the cuffs and pocket. This kit was fun, festive, and on-fire!
3. Billy Horschel
Awesome, awesome, awesome! Billy Horschel made me smile from ear to ear when I saw him in this Cotton-Blend Cricket Sweater. I am quite certain I wore a very similar v-neck sweater for my senior picture in 1992, however, I did not look this good.
2. Erik van Rooyen (Greyson Clothiers & ECCO)
Greyson’s Camowolf Crewneck Sweater and Sage Montauk Joggers. Need more be said? I highly recommend you read Greg’s write up on EVR in the 2019 Threadies. It was exceptional.
1. Rory McIlroy (Nike)
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Rory McIlroy kicked things off at the Arnold Palmer Invitational with the ultimate Arnold Palmer tribute. He looked classy and cool. Just like Arnie….
