‘That’s a little bit much’: Jason Day asked to tone down his fashion choices at 2025 Masters

Jason Day turned plenty of heads with his outfit choices at last year’s Masters but said on Tuesday he will not be sporting such bold ensembles this week after Augusta National requested he sport a more reserved look.

The Australian former world No 1, who left Nike in early 2024 to join Malbon Golf, had some interesting outfits ready for the year’s first major this week but has since had to make changes.

“We kind of did, but we kind of cut everything in half. With what we’re supposed to wear they said that’s a little bit much, but that’s OK,” Day, 37, said after a nine-hole practice round with fellow Australians Min Woo Lee and Cameron Smith.

“We had to send it in. I think I’m on the shortlist of guys that have to send their scripting in now. I get it. It was a little bit much on Thursday.”

At the 2024 Masters, Day wore baggy blue pants and a loud sweater vest that featured “No. 313. Malbon Golf Championship” in large block letters across the front when he showed up on the Friday to complete his first round alongside Tiger Woods.

But when the 2015 PGA Championship winner showed up for the second round later that day the vest was gone and he later said tournament organisers had asked him to remove the garment.

Day, who finished runner-up in his Masters debut in 2011 and this week will make his 14th start at Augusta National, said he was fine altering his outfits and did not want to be a distraction.

“It’s good. I understand. We’re here for the tournament. This is why we come every April. We’re here to play the tournament and I understand,” he said. “We’ll do what we can with what we have fashion-wise and enjoy playing the tournament.
