" Starting yesterday in Scotland, some of the best golfers in the world converged for The Open, all of them hoping to walk away with the $8 million purse come Sunday. Here we are at the halfway point, and with the outcome yet to be determined, it seems like as good a time as any to judge the gents, not by their stats or current rankings, but by the stylistic splendor with which they&amp;#039;re presenting themselves. While there&amp;#039;s plenty of the usual peacockery on the putting green, we were lucky enough to get another perspective on The Open&amp;#039;s style, thanks to our friends over at Ralph Lauren RLX, who gave us an inside look at what they had in mind for their brand ambassadors (Luke Donald, Billy Horschel, and Matteo Manassero) as they battled it out with their drivers and 9-irons. Call us geeks, but we think it&amp;#039;s pretty cool to see the clothes in their initial concept \u2014 simply some pen-on-paper action \u2014 as well as the final execution. Starting with a trim silhouette and then adding on the brash colors that are favored in the golf community, the brand made sure that its representatives were looking sharp as they putted and pitched their way through the competition. And sure, the slick sketches might look a little cooler than their flesh-and-blood counterparts, but they&amp;#039;re also not dealing with the stress of playing for $8 million. Regardless, one thing&amp;#039;s for certain: The RLX team made sure their trio stood out \u2014 and not just for their skills on the course.
