An email sent to the pro's has been released, with the racerback tops worn by Michelle Wie among the garments banned under the new rules.
LPGA Player President Vicki Goetze-Ackerman outlined what would and wouldn't be allowed as of this coming Monday, with anyone not adhering to the new list to be fined $1,000.
The code includes the following:
• Racerback with a mock or regular collar are allowed (no collar = no racerback).
• Plunging necklines are NOT allowed.
• Leggings, unless under a skort or shorts, are NOT allowed.
• Length of skirt, skort, and shorts MUST be long enough to not see your bottom area (even if covered by under shorts) at any time, standing or bent over.
• Appropriate attire should be worn to pro-am parties. You should be dressing yourself to present a professional image. Unless otherwise told “no,” golf clothes are acceptable. Dressy jeans are allowed, but cut-offs or jeans with holes are NOT allowed.
