There will probably be not hat controversies at Royal Montreal – at the least not involving Patrick Cantlay.
Cantlay went sans headwear throughout final 12 months’s Ryder Cup in Rome, a call that sparked quite a few rumors and stories – and a great deal of heckles from the pro-European crowd – although Cantlay and his teammates denied the style selection was a type of protest.
“It simply doesn’t match, it’s so simple as that,” mentioned Cantlay, who additionally didn’t don a hat on the 2021 Ryder Cup.
This week is a special story, as Cantlay, at the least thus far in apply, has been sporting a team-issued cap. The topic didn’t come up in Cantlay’s media scrum on Tuesday, although U.S. captain Jim Furyk was requested about it and answered with some levity.
“We lastly had one which had that odd of a form that it might really match on there,” Furyk mentioned. “I believe lots of it’s our distributors. He wore a hat two years in the past in Charlotte. We had the identical distributors on the PGA Tour, and he appears to be snug. If my guys are snug in hats, they will put on hats. In the event that they’re not snug in hats, it doesn’t matter.
“It doesn’t work out too effectively for me, I’ll simply say. My head will flip purple after a day, however I need them snug. I believe we’d each say that the clothes this 12 months, my guys adore it.”
