25 Augusta Golf Outfits

Augusta in April is warm, humid and green in a way that flattens most colours. Anyone who has stood at Amen Corner in the afternoon knows the two things that matter: the walking is relentless and the sun arrives suddenly after a grey morning.

Practically, that means breathable fabric, flat shoes and one clear colour rather than a print, because prints disappear against that much foliage. Phones are famously not allowed on the grounds, so pockets matter less than usual and a small permitted bag matters more. The Pebble Beach list and the St Andrews edit cover the other two great courses in the same trip planning conversation.

Comfortable flat shoes are the whole game at Augusta, more than any other piece. Our guide to the best golf apparel covers the rest.

White trousers with a green polo. The most Augusta colour combination there is, and green is the one shade that belongs entirely to this week.

#4: Pink Polo with White Shorts

A pink polo with white shorts. Azaleas are the reason pink works here and it is the one week of the year it looks deliberate rather than accidental.

#5: Linen Shirt with Khaki Trousers

A linen shirt with khaki trousers. Linen is the correct fabric for Georgia humidity and nobody at Augusta has ever minded a crease.

#6: Green Midi Dress with a Straw Hat

A green midi dress with a straw hat. The hat is not optional in April, because the grey morning turns into full sun without warning.

#7: White Skort with a Navy Polo

A white skort with a navy polo. For anyone playing rather than watching, and the classic pairing holds up in heat.

#8: Chambray Shirt with White Jeans

A chambray shirt with white jeans. Relaxed enough for a practice round day, which has a completely different atmosphere to tournament days.

#9: Coral Top with Beige Trousers

A coral top with beige trousers. Coral is the second best colour against Georgia green after yellow, and warmer than pink in flat light.

#10: Seersucker Separates

Seersucker trousers with a plain top. The most Southern fabric there is, designed for exactly this climate, and it moves air where cotton holds it.

#11: Navy Dress with a Cardigan

A navy dress with a light cardigan. April mornings in Georgia are cool and the afternoons are not, which catches out most first time visitors.

#12: White Polo with Green Trousers

A white polo with green trousers. Green below rather than above is the less obvious way to wear the colour and it looks less like a costume.

#13: Cream Linen Dress with Flat Sandals

A cream linen dress with flat sandals. The coolest option here in the literal sense, and the hem clears wet morning grass.

#14: Pale Blue Shirt with White Trousers

A pale blue shirt with white trousers. The most anonymous outfit on this list, which is right for a week when the course is the spectacle.

#15: Striped Top with Khaki Shorts

A striped top with khaki shorts. Comfortable for a full day of walking hills, and Augusta has considerably more elevation than it appears on television.

#16: Green Polo with Beige Shorts

A green polo with beige shorts. The playing version of the Augusta palette and the one that survives sweat better than white.

#17: Floral Midi in Soft Colours

A soft floral midi dress. Prints only work here in pale colours, because anything dark and busy vanishes into the background completely.

#18: White Shirt Dress with a Belt

A white shirt dress with a thin belt. Simple, cool, and it takes a cardigan for the morning without looking layered.

#19: Navy and White with Comfortable Flats

Navy and white separates with genuinely comfortable flats. Augusta is a walking course for spectators and the shoes decide how the day ends.

#20: Lemon Top with White Trousers

A lemon top with white trousers. The brightest thing here, and brightness is genuinely useful when you are meeting people in a crowd.

#21: Sage Dress with a Straw Hat

A sage dress with a straw hat. Sage against Georgia green is tonal rather than clashing, and it is more forgiving than a stronger colour.

#22: Light Knit over a Sleeveless Dress

A light knit over a sleeveless dress. Off by ten in the morning and back on if the evening cools, with nothing to carry all day.

#23: Khaki Trousers with a White Sleeveless Top

Khaki trousers with a white sleeveless top. Full leg coverage against sun with the arms free, which suits the hottest afternoons.

#24: Packable Rain Shell over Neutrals

A packable rain shell over a neutral outfit. Georgia storms in April arrive fast, pass quickly and soak anyone without a layer in the bag.

#25: The Full Day at Augusta

Linen or cotton, one clear colour, a straw hat, flat shoes and a light layer. This is what a full day on those hills actually needs.
