We stop breathing every time the ball rolls near the cup--almost a hole-in-one. We howl with glee when our favorite scores with another miraculous wedge-flip. And on the nineteenth hole we relax with a spring cooler.
Between the tournament, a little gem robbery, and all the other fun of a roving reporter we hardly find time to mind our own business and see what the well-dressed man wears on or around the golf course, at lunch, cocktails or dinner. At supper, amid non-pertinent chatter and calloused mitts, we sit amongst the finest individual group of golfers in tournament extant. Our roving eye quickly notes the styled appearance of sporting men. Stylists in golf and stylists in clothes - these guys who look the part. They're truly champion play for pay boys.
