Winners Monday Style

 Mondays are always better when you come out a winner.  Just because the golf season is winding down (or for the PGA tour starting back up which is so weird) does not mean you have to stop looking good on the course.  Mondays are for talking about the winners style.  Also a big shout out to Korea who had the bigger winners for the week.  Korea is hitting all the right notes and it is great to see the country being highlighted from great golfers to the Squid Game. (If you have not seen it be aware it is not for the faint of heart.)


First stop is to the LPGA Founders Cup at Mountain Ridge Country Club in West Caldwell, NJ.  The tournament is a great tribute to the 13 women who founded the LPGA.  Their great work allows girls to dream of playing golf professionally. The tournament is my first official LPGA tour event I got to attend. Some photos below of the wonderful course and why the LPGA has the Founders Cup.










Ko Jin-young came out on top.  She is continuing a great run and career on the LPGA.  Her style was flawless during the week and always looking tailored.  Sunday she was able to look flawless despite the tough fall weather with cold rain and wind.  I am a huge fan of black and white and her Sunday winning outfit showed off the simple colors.  The sweater like top had a winter like snowflake feel that seemed appropriate for a miserable fall day of weather.  I was cozy warm on the couch watching the win.


PGA Tour had a second time winner with Sungjae Im. Monochromatic was the style for Im.  The block coloring worked well for me.  Picture shown is from Saturday but Im also rocked the black and white look for the Sunday win.  I always love a white belt on the golf course especially with dark colors. I would say a solid golf style for the week! 
 

Phil Mickelson is a winner again on the Champions Tour.  Turning 50 has suited Phil well.  Not only is he the PGA Champion but he is also winning almost every start the Champions Tour.  Phil is not a style on the course.  He looks like the golfer who rolls out of bed and grabs the clothes just hung up in the closet.  He does not adventure into prints or adventurous golf styles. Style is for Phil is average Joe.  Blacks, whites, grays and blues are a guarantee.  Nothing special.  I am glad he is no longer wearing the button down golf shirt thing.  However, Phil has made the aviator sunglasses his thing.  I will say they work for him. Not many people could pull off the look.  He came out of COVID wearing the sunglasses.  He told CBS sports golf commentators the reason for the sunglasses came out of necessity for some preventative skin cancer measures.   A lot of comments can be found on what type he wears but I have no confirmation.  I will say I am sure they are not cheap.  A good pair of athletic aviators will cost you close to $300.

Lastly, the Symetra Tour finished out its season and 10 women earned their tour cards to the LPGA.  A tour card looks good on all the ladies.  A big congratulations to all the women and good luck.  I hope to write about you in the Winners Monday Style.
