A couple of weeks ago I told you about Noshember... the creative November beard-growing challenge. No Shave November = Noshember.
In response to that post the awesome Aussie Golfer asked, "Is that a rip-off of Movember?" - Turns out Movember is a similar movement... but with a focus on... the mustache.
Anyone who's been watching the Presidents's Cup these last few days has seen some great golf played out on the treacherous fairways of Royal Melbourne. Stylistically speaking, the uniforms haven't received much attention ... but there's one particular style statement does have people talking: Australian golf Geoff Ogilvy's "Movember moment". The normally clean-shaven Aussie golfers is currently sporting a prodigious mustache. Some like it, some loath it but it's definitely getting attention.
Personally I'm just wondering if Mr. Ogilvy was inspired by the famous golf architect or the iconic porn star.

Consistent and Creative: Yani Tseng's Winning Style
![]() |

Ten career victories, five majors by age 22, money milestones, POY honors and quantifiable uber-consistency... these are some of the highly visible results of Yani's stellar game.
But lets get really superficial and shallow for a minute and talk about the girl's look.
As much as Yani Tseng's distinctive personal style, may not appeal to a Bleacher Report Swagger kind of guy... or to those who swear by FoxSports Incomplete Coverage ... there are lots of us who do appreciate her special fashion sense.
Simplicity, it would seem, is at the base of Yani's sartorial strategy:
• A fitted cap (Adams Golf) and half jacket shades (Oakley)
• Classic tops in bright colors and close fitting bermuda shorts with a destinctive belt (Lacoste)
• Simple solid-colored shoes (Footjoy)
That's pretty much it... the Yani Tseng style playbook. Like her game, Yani's on-course look is consistent... yet it's also very creative because, as she demonstrates week after week, consistency and creativity are not mutually exclusive.
The last really dominant LPGA player was Lorena Ochoa who, like Yanni, is 5'6". The two champions also have Lacoste in common, so it's not surprising to note a few stylistic similarities between them, but it's the details that make the difference, and personality adds that extra something that creates a personal style. Like Lorena Ochoa before her, Yani Tseng has a winning one.

Je Cherche le Foulard Golf - Seeking Golf Scarf
If I could create a silk scarf, with a golf theme... it would look a lot like this. Hot pink and turquoise...lots of flowers and whimsically rendered little golf things. Oh, and in theory it's also available in a navy/pearl gray combination. In case the pink/turquoise The thing is, these scarfs were once available at the French Golf Federation's website... for 90 €... However that's apparently no longer the case... and I'm wondering where I can now get a hold of a few. Any ideas.

Simply the Best - Rory McIlroy Gets a Donkey Tee
Less than a week ago Rory McIlroy was just another young gun. An ultra-talented players who might someday win a major... or two. But that all changed when he won the 2011 US Open... breaking several records and impressing even those who hadn't quite warmed up to him.
And now there's a Donkey Tee in his honor.
