Augusta National Reins In Jason Day’s Bird-Print Look at the Masters

The request signals the club’s tight control over on-course style during Malbon’s high-profile Masters push.

Overview

  • Day’s Malbon outfit, shown in practice Monday, dropped the matching bird‑print pants after organizers asked for solid slacks.
  • Masters officials approved his bird‑print shirts, vests and outerwear from Malbon’s “Birds of Georgia” line inspired by species found at Augusta.
  • Founder Stephen Malbon said they submit Day’s full wardrobe in advance, with Augusta requesting only that the pants be solid.
  • Fellow Malbon pro Im Sung‑jae is also set to wear the print this week, raising the brand’s visibility at Augusta.
  • Day’s outfits face closer scrutiny after a 2024 vest was pulled mid‑event, underscoring Augusta’s strict, often unwritten attire rules and its outfit pre‑approval process.
