Jason Day’s striking top attracted plenty of attention on social media and also, it appears, from tournament officials at the Masters.
“Yeah, they asked me to take it off, the vest off yesterday,” Day said after his third round on Saturday.
“Respectfully, you do that because it’s all about the tournament here, and I understand that. I respect the tournament. That’s what we’re here to do is try and play and win the green jacket.”
Asked if he had been given a specific reason for the request, such as the Malbon logo and text being too big, Day added: “I don’t know. I didn’t ask.
“They said, can you take it off? I said, yeah, no worries.”
Day also had no problem with jokes about the dangers of wearing very baggy trousers on an extremely windy day, admitting: “Yeah, if it’s down breeze these things puff up pretty quick.”
