What are you dressing up as this spooky season? Well, many people are already in the game to be the best dressed for this Halloween. See, we all know that the fans love dressing up as their favorite golfers and we have seen a fair share of instances of that happening. We’ve seen kids and adults dress up as their favorite golfers, and it’s absolute gold. Remember that mini John Daly from a few years back? The little guy rocked Daly’s iconic American flag pants and sunglasses and fans were convinced it was a miniature version of the golf legend.
Fast forward to the present and Amazon even has a special section for Daly-inspired costumes and you can snag those famous pants for just $19! But Daly’s not the only golfer inspiring cosplay. We’ve seen adorable mini versions of Tiger Woods complete with tiny golf hat and clubs, and a dad dressed as a caddie, and even a hilarious recreation of Scottie Scheffler’s arrest scene. The whole world is excited with the sheer thrill of the festival and so are some of the Tiger Woods fans who tried to replicate a look of the golfer only to get bashed by the fans.
The latest video by NUCLR GOlF on Instagram showed the fans how two men decided to dress up as the GOAT and his caddie for this spooky season and let’s just say they didn’t find the outfit to be that good. We mean, the fans did try to copy Woods to tiny details. From the red tee to black trousers and everything but you know it’s all in the aura and not the clothes, at least that’s what the fans thought. “The 🐐 of all Halloween costumes 🎃”, read the caption.

Starting off strong with what this one fan said, “Adidas pants? Nice try” while the other said “Adidas pants, titleist golf, no TW hat?” and well the hat is kind of a crucial thing when you’re going out as Tiger Woods for Halloween. Everyone knows that Woods’s iconic red shirt is more than just a style statement, it’s a battle cry. When he slips it on for the final round, you know he’s ready to take on the competition and he shows the opponent just how ready he is by wearing red to the tournament.
What’s your perspective on:
Can a Halloween costume capture the true essence of Tiger Woods without his iconic red shirt?
Have an interesting take?
But what’s behind this bold tradition? Turns out, it’s a nod to his college days at Stanford, where the team wore red on the final day of events. Superstition took hold, and Woods has stuck with it ever since. But there’s another special reason behind Woods’ love for red – his mom, Kultida. She convinced him it’s his power color, and who argues with Mom, right? Well, since then the golfer has been wearing red to the final rounds, and its safe to say that it has worked out for him so far.
Another fan said something that may sound confusing to some of you, “The Adidas pants kind of made me mad”, while another said, “Nailed it except for the Adidas pants”, but why? Well, remember when Adidas ditched TaylorMade golf clubs in 2016? Yeah, that decision turned out to be a major misstep now, thanks to Tiger Woods’s epic Masters win in 2019 where he was seen armed with TaylorMade clubs and the brand’s value through the roof. Adidas sold TaylorMade for a relatively paltry $425 million which was a far cry from the $1.4 billion it shelled out in 1997.
