"Clothes don’t make you look thinner — diets do."
/Stephanie Wei grills Marty Hackel about tour players and fashion, drawing some lively answers out of the Golf Digest fashion guru. I think I smell a Phil-Marty discussion on the range:
Phil gets a lot of grief about his wardrobe. And recently he wore white pants the week he won the Tour Championship. What’s your general feel on him these days?
His shirts have gotten a little snug. It’s way better than a few years ago when his shirts were oversized. Clothes don’t make you look thinner — diets do. Americans think oversized shirts make you look thinner, but they don’t. Next few people you hear criticize Phil, ask them to look in the mirror. Because it’s mostly oversized guys. He’s not batting a thousand, but who is on the PGA?
