How this photo of Aussie golf star Jason Day saw him get busted by the fashion police at the world's most important tournament Former world No.1 is Australia's best hope at the Masters Day, 37, led the field late in last year's tournament By MURRAY WENZEL FOR AUSTRALIAN ASSOCIATED PRESS Published: 04:27, 9 April 2025 | Updated: 04:27, 9 April 2025 e-mail View comments Jason Day has revealed a Masters fashion faux pas that has forced him to revise his first-round fashion statement at Augusta National. The Australian former world No.
1 and Masters runner-up was in terrific spirits after playing nine holes under brilliant sunshine on Tuesday's practice day. Day was asked by Masters officials to remove a knitted vest during last year's first round, the clothing a statement piece in what was a new partnership with golf-inspired lifestyle brand Malbon. He said that put him on the 'short list' of players who needed to clear their clothing plan with the tournament ahead of the 2025 event.
'We kind of cut everything in half, with what we're supposed to wear,' he said of his planned Thursday attire. 'They said that's a little bit much, but that's OK. Jason Day is pictured wearing the knitted vest that got him in trouble with the powers that be at last year's Masters tournament in Augusta The Aussie (pictured during a practice round at Augusta on Tuesday) now has to clear his outfits with tournament officials 'We'll do what we can with what we have fashion-wise and enjoy playing the tournament.
' Day, runner-up at Augusta in 2011 and leader late in the final round two years later, played with fellow Australians Min Woo Lee and Cameron Smith on Tuesday. He was in a joking mood, laughing at himself after mishearing a journalist's question on whether the 'penny had dropped' for Lee after his Houston Open success last month. 'Do I think, what? Did you say panties? I don't drop many panties out there, mate,' Day cackled.
The 37-year-old rated his recent form as 'solid', frustrated to let a title chance slip when he hit a muddied ball into the water in his final round at Bay Hill's Arnold Palmer International. 'Today is relaxed, but you're starting to think 'OK, last day of prep tomorrow and then things start to perk up',' he said. 'This is my 14th time playing here.
'Not sure how many more I've got of these, hoping I have a lot more. 'So I just try to soak in as much as possible with my family because it's something that we enjoy every year.'
