What to wear to the Golf? - Muirfield Open



With the 2013 Open Championship being held at Muirfield in Gullane, East Lothian this year from 14th to 21st July and the good weather forecast to continue planning ahead can ensure you have an enjoyable day out on the course – well depending on how your favourite player is performing.    















The most important thing to plan for, especially for women, is the footwear.  High heels may be glamorous for an evening out but try walking round 18 holes on a golf course and you will struggle.  A pair of sandals will be nice and cool in the hot weather or why not try a small heeled wedge for a more fashionable look. Whatever you decide make sure they are comfortable as you may walk quite some distance throughout the day.



A pair of light trousers or long shorts paired with a polo shirt is acceptable dress for women on a golf course. Cool summer dresses with sandals will also be seen at golfing events in the summer. It is considerate to the players to wear light colours and not brightly distracting colours.  















If it is hot have a large bag to hold your sunscreen, hat and glasses and bottle of water.  Take a waterproof jacket as it is a Scottish summer we are talking about!  















As stated above polo shirts are ideal to wear and you could show your support for your favourite player by having your own logo created on a polo shirt or a hat at Dunbar T-shirt shop.































Muirfield have hosted the Open Championship 17 times with St. Andrews hosting the most at 27.  











The Silver Claret Jug or the Golf Champion Trophy will be awarded to the winner at the end of the tournament.    So whether you are supporting Scottish Amateur champion Grant Forrest or American Tiger Woods and whatever you decide to wear we hope you have a lovely day.    If past Opens are anything to go by then we are in for some excellent golf and lots of exciting, nail biting finishes.



Much Love
