This a a problem that happens all over the world. Most Golf Clubs/Courses have rules on attire especially with Private Clubs/ Courses. Even the PGA Tour has rules on clothing.
The rules are printed everywhere and there are signs everywhere about the dress code, yet people and members pretend not to see or choose to ignore. And enforcement is not consistent.
Guess basically the rules are just to maintain a level of decorum. If not you will get people dressed up like the Village People on the golf course. But it's a measure of one's consideration and respect for others and also a reflection on yourself. I don't mean you have dress with swag, but just look decent. On public ranges without any dress code, I do wear T-shirts and board shorts. But swinging in them feels totally different.
So what you do is up to you. Follow the dress code, loosely interpret the rules or clearly break the rules. No point on me judging others.
Totally agree. Some may argue that celebrities should be allowed to wear what they want because the club can benefit from the publicity. Others will argue that members of a club should also be allowed to wear what they want. But I think that once you choose to play at any golf course, member or not, celebrity or not, you should respect the rules, including the dress code of the place.
ReplyDeleteYup, should follow the rules. Part of the kindness movement. Rather then asking people to clear trays.
