Bubba Golf clothing line no more

Posted by Anne Szeker

Bubba_400There's been a lot of talk that Tiger Woods didn't make sense as the face of old-person-car-producer Buick. But what about Bubba Watson representing and designing his own clothing line? Perhaps Steve & Barry's should have thought more carefully about that choice.

Golf Week is reporting that the affordable clothing store, which carries the Bubba Golf clothing line, is closing it's doors.

"Some people like black shirts, but I'm not big on the black shirts," Watson said when the clothing line launched in 2007. "I chose which colors I liked, which designs I liked, which stripe patterns, how many buttons I wanted. Down to every last stitch, I played a part in everything. Picking the tags, everything."

Watson showed off his handy work at the 2008 Masters tournament. Fashion Faux Pas Numero Uno: Hot pink. The coordination between his driver shaft and pants could be cute... if he were Paula Creamer. But even she wouldn't wear pink that hot. Two: Pleats. Three: The fit. Were these clothes made for John Daly or Watson? I'm not even going to mention the mint-ice-cream-colored visor or yellow alligator belt.

Perhaps Watson should take some cues from a player on tour who already knows how to dress.
