I know they are allowed.....but there were times when they weren't, whether by code or individual ambassador. I think dumbing down the dress codes is a shame, and so glad the private CC's haven't followed that trend. In a recent interview, Gary Player said that one of the reasons he enjoyed coming to the US to play was that Americans respected each other and one of the ways they showed that was in how they dressed. The other good news was, if you saw the Drive, Chip and Putt competition the kids were dressed, showed the proper manners and respect for the game and were evidently taught the culture of the game. It's going away, but for the most part, the players here in TV continue to respect the game and dress appropriately. Lets hope they stay in the majority and the denim is a small part.
