The internet loses its mind at Justin Thomas and Jason Day

There were plenty of fashion statements on show on day one of the The Open, but none more so than from Justin Thomas and Jason Day.

And, as always, there was a very mixed reaction on social media…

 

When you have a tee time at 9:58 but a business meeting at 4 ? https://t.co/ZUTtVBeXj6

How many golf clubs wouldn't allow Jason Day on the course dressed like he is at #TheOpen today?

Looking sharp Justin. All my very best to you this week. GP

Man walked on the moon 48 years ago today which is also the only explanation for what Jason Day is wearing at #TheOpen pic.twitter.com/yuuHs9NzOi

Can we all get over the fact that Justin Thomas is dressed like Justin Timberlake today? Just play.

We really like them. The game has got to modernise and we have to embrace fashion. If that helps bring more golfers back then perfect.

The absolute state of Jason Day,he looks like he's going to a New Kids on the Block concert… #TheOpen

Should have a 2 shot penalty for those.

Jason Day is a racerback away from being an LPGA nightmare.

I like the cardigan and tie, but the ball cap doesn't seem to fit the style.

I couldn't be more of a Jason Day fan but those shoes are straight trash. #TheOpen

Jason Day needs to have a serious word with himself regarding his future footwear after today's choice #TheOpen

— Jack Pitt (@JackPitt94) July 20, 2017

Massive ? – looks an idiot! If you're going to wear a tie then wear it propely, not like a year 8 school Kid!

I've come around to trainer-style golf shoes but I draw the line at these hi tops Jason Day is wearing. Call me old school but.. #TheOpen

— Matthew Southcombe (@MattSouth7) July 20, 2017

All for the Justin Thomas suit & tie number but the Jason Day nike high tops aren't well #TheOpen

— Chris McCready (@ChrisMcCready4) July 20, 2017

Looks like Jason Day is rocking the @Jumpman23 AJ 1 Retro High OG. Respect the shoe game but not the pants. https://t.co/aQIsj7wJyF
