Anthony Kim's apparel lineup for the U.S. Open - click to see other players scripts

I’m curious to know how many people are interested in this sort of thing. Nike PR has sent out apparel scripts for their players in the field at this week’s U.S. Open. Now you can see what Stewart Cink, Anthony Kim and other Nike players will be wearing in advance. I know I was losing a lot of sleep until I found out what color pants Lucas Glover is going to wear on Sunday’s final round, presuming he makes the cut of course.

The images though, don’t include what type of underwear (boxers, briefs, boxerbriefs or thongs) or what type of socks or shoes they’re wearing. Looks like there will be a lot of players with chafed cabooses and blisters on their feet!

Nike started this with Tiger about 10 years ago because they learned golfers were going into stores the following week looking to buy something he wore in the tournament. I recall seeing a few other companies are also releasing the scripts prior to the major tournaments now as well.

The problem is none of these outfits (apart from Ian Poulter’s) are really that interesting. They’re nice, but nothing I’d share with friends.
