To be clear, I’m not suggesting we ditch the blazer entirely. If it’s a real golf tournament (and if you have to ask, it isn’t), a dash of formality gives extra buzz to any dinner, be it the kickoff or closing ceremony. With a jacket on, science proves you’ll laugh a little louder and order one more drink, which is good for everyone. There are lots of clubs that never require a blazer, ever, for anything, but these are also the places that let you walk around in sandals.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — Masters patrons applaud all good shots in relation to their difficulty. Heckles are not tolerated. As far as style, it’s the most homogeneously well-dressed crowd in sports. So how to tell what beats inside the hearts of the thousands following the final pairing on an epic Masters Sunday? You ask them. And what you hear might surprise you. Justin Rose was the ultimate challenger, but the foil for most of Masters Sunday was Bryson DeChambeau.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — New history is being made at the Masters, but as it’s Golf Digest’s 75th Anniversary year, we had to look back. The 1950 Masters was a particularly good edition. Playing in his first major since his near-fatal car accident, Ben Hogan was in second place after 54 holes though fell to T-4. Jimmy Demaret took it, becoming the first person to win the Masters three times.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — Masters patrons know golf. At almost any other tournament, maybe only half as many people would be aware of Angel Cabrera’s recent history. That the Argentine was incarcerated for 30 months for domestic violence and just last year got his visa to re-enter the United States. That whether his past champion’s invitation ought to be rescinded was a question strongly raised throughout the week at Augusta National.
