With the second day of the Masters in full swing, Jason Day’s set became one of the talking points at Augusta National on Friday.
The 21st-ranked golfer wore a bold outfit during Day 2 to honor a sponsorship deal with golf clothing line Malbon. Day was wearing a white vest with the number ‘No. 313’ printed in red on the chest and ‘Malbon golf champions’ in capital letters and large prints on the lower torso.
The bold fashion statement divided fans who took to social media to express their thoughts on her sweater.
‘Is someone making Jason Day dress like this? I feel like they’re making a joke,” wrote one user.
“I don’t know the terms of the deal, but there’s no way Jason Day’s Malbon check was big enough to justify wearing it in public, let alone at the Masters,” another added.
Jason Day had fans divided with his daring outfit on Day 2 of the Masters at Augusta National.
Day wore a unique sweater vest to honor his deal with golf apparel brand Malbon.
Fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to express their opinions on Day’s outfit.
A third user joked: “Placing last in your fantasy football league is finally catching up to you.” Meanwhile, a fourth claimed Day “looks like a pack of cigarettes.”
While many were dissatisfied with her outfit, some defended Day’s choice to rock the sweater on the big stage.
“JDay looks great,” argued one user. ‘I’m in.’
‘They keep talking about Jason Day! “Just helps @MalbonGolf grow,” another chimed in. “It’s meant to create discourse and you’re all doing what you intended.” There’s a vibe though and I love it.”
“Jason Day’s fit is infinitely better than Bubba Watson’s Range Goats suit,” one user said.
The 2015 Masters champion’s uniforms, while speaking for themselves, share the attention Day generates playing alongside Tiger Woods. On Thursday, the Australian’s unusually baggy pants became a topic of conversation when fans referred to them as “parachute pants.”
Their outfits for the entire tournament have been planned by Albon, who posted the Thursday-Sunday designs and outfits earlier this week.
