"FacebookPinterest\n\nHere are ten thoughts on how to improve the game\u2014and don't worry, not one was written by Bob Hope.\n\nI. No double pleats.\n\n Back in Arnold Palmer's heyday, golfers used to dress like breezy Rat Packers on holiday. Now they dress like assistant managers at OfficeMax. It's time to ditch those pleated khakis and oversize polo shirts. You can mix it up, fellas. Try a white belt, try some slim\u2013fitting pants, and try wearing a shirt with sleeves that fit.\n\nII. You, too, Tiger. \n\n Tiger's finally bagged his beloved pleats. But he still wears pants nine sizes too big, and that hideous silver\u2013tipped belt. Maybe the stylish Jesper Parnevik can introduce Tiger to his tailor. He already introduced him to his babysitter, and that worked out pretty well.\n\nIII. And Save Phil.\n\n Phil Mickelson may be the most loved player on the PGA Tour, but he's carrying a big handicap on the wardrobe. Plodding up the fairway in those slate pants and a spacious black jersey, he looks like a security guard on his way to Dunkin' Donuts.\n\nIV. Hats off. \n\n You're hitting a stationary ball, not fielding pop flies at Wrigley. So lose the baseball cap. If you need protection, wear sunscreen.\n\nV. If you're not playing, then don't dress to play.\n\n You ever notice that fans attending golf tournaments dress like they're in the tournament\u2014with logo shirts, visors, and sometimes even golf shoes? This needs to stop. You don't see baseball fans wearing cleats and stockings, do you?\n\nVI. \"Get in the hole!\"\n\n For the 24,455,345,345th time\u2014stop shouting this, fans. Please.\n\nVII. Get better trophies. \n\n Yes, the Claret Jug at the British Open is cool. But that gigantic sword at the Bay Hill Invitational? It's golf, not na: Warrior Princess.\n\nVII. Stop the sponsor interview.\n\n Because after a sudden\u2013death play\u2013off, nothing ruins the excitement more than a five\u2013minute chat with the ecutive VP of communications for the Southwest Municipal Bond Company.\n\nIX. Learn to high five. \n\n Is there anything more awkward than a tour player getting all fired up? After Tiger Woods sank that surreal chip on the sixteenth at Augusta, he and his caddie, Steve Williams, swiped at each other's open palms spasmodically, as if they were on Family Feud.\n\nX. Stop bitching about Michele Wie playing in your tournaments. \n\n She's the most exciting star on the PGA Tour and she's not even on it. Yet."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
