That’s a reasonable question in my opinion. I love and respect the game of golf, but never got the whole dress code thing. To me, respecting the game of golf is about respecting both the golf course and fellow golfers. Things that are important include fixing ball marks, filling in divots, raking bunkers, keeping quiet and still when others are hitting, helping other golfers track and find their ball, not walking in putting lines, pulling and replacing the flag, picking up other golfers wedges when walking off the greens, and keeping up a reasonable pace of play. I would much prefer to play with a golfer wearing jeans and a t shirt who does the above, than a lazy disrespectful slob dressed in pressed slacks wearing an overpriced tucked in collared shirt. But hey, maybe that’s just me?
