Dishonorable Mention - Midseason 2009


(Photo the property of Getty Images)

Although it's not really in our nature to poke fun at the stylistically challenged golfers out there, at the request of several of our readers and in the spirit of genuine hilarity, we've decided to compile this photo expose of the worst looks of the first half of 2009.

Feel free to drop notes of concurrence, debate or even confusion. Confusion plays a rather large role here, I suppose...Surely these guys are mystified when they go to their closets every day and the goal of this little site is to clear up these embarrassing episodes of sartorial conundrum.

We've spared no one...Tour winners, major champions, NBA legends - all are fair game.On the day before the day that America celebrates its Independence let us free ourselves from the oppressions of baggy trousers and potato sack-shirts. May we rise up against bad headwear and footwear. When the smoke clears on the battlefield of style, all that will remain is form-fitting, beautiful clothing and the pride that seeps from our very beings as we sweep the morning dew. (Subtle nod to James Dodson)

Stay the style course and the course will repay you infinitely. Stray...and well, you may end up here...branded in cyber infamy with the tag: "Worst-Dressed!"

Huh. And said with a poker face, I'm guessing?

Which raises the obvious but unanswered question: What type of attire should I don to sweep the morning dew? Clam diggers? Or should I save them for floodwear?

Love that Woody Austin pic.

Having the ability to read lips, metal grooves and Woody Allen quotes, I can tell what that fleeting four iron is saying:

"I'm a club that wouldn't join any golfer who'd allow that shirt as a member of his wardrobe."

Okay, KC, you've obviously nailed the "Midseason Looks of the Year" nominations, honorably mentioned the "Honorable Mention Looks" and aptly crucified the "Midseason Dishonorable Mentions."

Your readers are now eagerly anticipating your bound-to-mesmerize "Midseason So-So Looks" of 2009.

Even if your reviews for this category are atypically just so-so, then so-so be it. I've got a slew of suggestions, but so many of them are merely adequate.

Waiting at the edge of my seat ...

I'd like to feel that all the notes I've dropped on your site have strong, consistent elements of even confusion.

My sister Nada's the one who takes the uneven confusion route. I have no idea why. It simply baffles me.
