Best golf cardigans

In golf, there are a few timeless looks. The quarter-zip and khaki pants, the polo and shorts, and, of course, the cardigan. Arnold Palmer, the King, also owns golf’s cardigan throne. He coined the look, and left it for others like Tommy Fleetwood to claim in the modern day.

But while Fleetwood is golf’s preeminent cardigan-wearer, there’s nothing to stop you from becoming the local buttoned-sweater aficionado. Here are five classy cardigans that we love, and we bet you will too.

If it’s good enough for golf’s preeminent cardigan aficionado Tommy Fleetwood, it’s certainly good enough for your game. Just about the only thing this quintessential look can’t help you do is sprout a Fleetwoodian flow, but that’s a tradeoff we’re willing to make.
