Gent Row Founder Tim Beasley Has His Eye On Making Golf Even More Fashionable, Both On The Course and Off
Since golf is one of the
few professional sports in which players can dress how they want to express their own personal style, Tim Beasley is about to tee-off on some fashion ideas golfers might consider both on and off the course. Actually, Beasley believes golfers handle their fashion freedom with more dignity and professionalism than others, so golfers don’t deserve to be stereotyped as bad dressers. In his eyes, while watching and playing golf himself, he says most golfers look fine. Many even stylish. Yes, there are a few fashion renegades that that have given the sport and those on the PGA Tour a bad name, but for every fashion blooper, there’s a Tiger Woods to make up for them. Phil Mickelson’s style tends to stick with solid colors, mostly black, which you can rarely go wrong with, while Greg Norman has been one of the best dressed golfers on the PGA tour for decades and even has his own clothing line. He’s best known for solids, polos and is almost always rocking his signature straw hat. Still one of the sharpest dressed men on any course, Gary Player’s signature color has always been black, making him the Johnny Cash of the PGA. But he’s also known to switch it up on occasion, usually opting for head-to-toe white instead. Tiger Woods doesn’t take many fashion risks on the course. Woods has been one of the most consistently best 26
golfers on the PGA Tour for over a decade. Beasley notes that Tiger’s Nike ensembles tend to be solid on the bottom, paired with solids or stripes on top, most likely in red and black. Whenever Beasley goes out to the many elegant parties, galas, fashion shows and awards ceremonies he attends, you’ll find celebrities buzzing around him almost as if looking for the latest fashion trends as they see Tim as the ultimate trendy. So, where does Beasley get his acute sense of fashion and why do so many men turn to this clothing connoisseur and savoir faire founder of Gent Row for updating their wardrobe? STYLE AND CONVENIENCE Those are the two magic words that have made Gent Row a hole-in-one success. Gent Row is adept at providing discriminating, but time-constrained customers who’d rather be out the course with quick and easy at-home fittings for online purchases, which makes such fashion sense for golfers. Most products seen on Gent Row’s online store can be purchased once customer’s measurements are in Gent Row’s database. How easy is that? Golf Central • Volume 22, Issue 12
