Shorts Give The PGA Championship A Member-Guest Vibe
/Not that there's anything wrong with the member guest!
I bring you great news from soggy Charlotte: now you can come to a major and not discern the players from the spectator.
Baba-booey!
Allowing the players to wear shorts in the practice round--a policy already adopted on the European Tour--screams Bushwood member-guest.
I realize I'm in the minority on this one, as every poll and every player declares how much they enjoyed letting their underexposed skin breath. And yes, pro golfers are real athletes these days, confused almost daily with linebackers, decathletes and boxers, so why not let them show off their physiques? Says the theory.
For me, the casual look reaffirms the fourth major as the fourth major.
For the first time at the #PGAChamp, players are able to wear shorts during the practice rounds and they are lovin' it. pic.twitter.com/dryYtfIOY7

I at least have one person agreeing with me...
For some reason seeing all the pga guys in shorts makes me feel uncomfortable It's like their legs are making their pro debut & are so white
