Last week at Farmers Insurance Open, Sam Ryder, a PGA Tour member, held the lead or a portion of the lead for 54 holes. The pressure started to build up as Sunday’s final round approached. He was pursued by PGA Tour stars like Tony Finau and Sungjae Im, who tried to stop him from achieving his elusive first career PGA Tour win.
Social media can be a fascinating place to be sure. Twitter users sat down and focused on Ryder’s play instead of Ryder’s play.
Ryder wore cranberry joggers that left a lot of his ankles exposed, which was criticised by both golfers and players.
John Daly, a golf legend, was not afraid to wear eccentric clothing on the fairway.
Joggers …. look great on men.

Ryder’s cranberry-joggers weren’t just the topic Daly tweeted about. The tweets came in throughout the day Sunday.

Shorts are not allowed on the Tour, but this weeks leader can wear joggers and ankle socks. Are you displaying 4 inches of ankle? Although I am not a fashion person, I will never be one. But there are some things that I will never understand. ?— Phil Mickelson (@PhilMickelson January 28, 2023

After Ryder’s back nine bogey, a Torrey Pines fan shouted, “It’s the Joggers!”
