Tiger Woods wears his new green Masters jacket with Raiders mesh shorts

On his first Friday night as the reigning Masters champion, Tiger Woods went to his own restaurant, The Woods – Jupiter, in his new green jacket, a tight-fitting Nike T-shirt and mesh shorts. Oakland Raiders. It makes me so happy. This should make you so happy. I could not stop smiling when I saw him.

I would have been disappointed when he had made his first Friday night in the jacket during a ceremony or public appearance organized in advance, the coat associated with a shirt Robert Graham, with an oversized Bryan Colangelo collar and expensive black jeans. But to The Woods in his Raiders shorts and his dri-fit clothes? You are trying to wear this damn jacket when you wear sportswear. It's perfect. It's spontaneous. I like that.

There may have been a time when winning the green jacket for Tiger would be a daunting feat, but it would also be one more jacket to add to the trophy stack in pursuit of a broader goal: to become the holder record of all time. This time is not now.

The jacket represents more than one Masters victory. You are not allowed to remove the jacket from the Augusta National property unless you are the defending champion. Then you get it for a year. Remember how Pat Reed caught some s ** t last year to wear it too? These criticisms were unfounded and probably had more to do with Reed's arrogant and insightful representative and the people who assigned him whenever he appeared in public in his new jacket.

However, it is impossible for Tiger to wear this specific jacket, that of 2019, the one that arrived after four surgeries on the back and every embarrassment imaginable, too. I need his underwater hunting in the thing. I need him on his couch in the middle of a Call of Duty bender in his boxer and his green jacket. He must be present at each of his children's activities (the signature line on the transcription of his champion's press conference is "I am excited to show and tell at school" ). Go on a SEAL Ruck with the jacket.

Every time he leaves home, whether it's a Raiders shorts or sneakers or a new turtleneck, he has to be on his shoulders. Play in the four rounds of the PGA Championship next month. And every major after that this summer. Who will remove it?

The fact that he is in his own restaurant with the most casual clothes on Friday night and the most coveted ceremonial clothes is as endearing as Tiger is having. He is so happy to have this jacket back and no one will tell him how much he can wear it and what he should wear with it over the next year.

long time Augusta Chronicle Scott Michaux, writer and master of the Masters, tweeted Friday night to Tiger to tell him that he would receive a reminder regarding the appropriate dress code for the jacket.

Like hell. I want to see this attempt. I want to know and understand the spirit of the person who tells Tiger that he is not wearing the fifth jacket he has won in what is arguably the greatest comeback of all time.

Tiger won five jackets. He won all the events of the game, two, three and four times more. Once you have won so much, you may not have the green jacket for a year. This obviously neglects the context of everything that happened between the fourth and the fifth jacket. As professional athletes often say, not all titles are created equal. The Cavaliers or Cubs 2016 will testify.

You may not be a fan of Tiger, but it's lovely to see someone who has done everything and looks like a rookie who has just won his first major or a veteran who eventually had one after 20 years of tortuous approaches. So, Tiger will live in this jacket for next year, as he would do really well, even if it means throwing it over the usual dri-fit uniform before going out to have jalapeno poppers at his own pace. bar."
