DUBLIN, Ohio — The Golden Bear and the color yellow are represented well at the merchandise tent at the Memorial and main pro shop at Muirfield Village Golf Club.
The homage to Jack Nicklaus’s nickname and the color shirt he wore in the final round of the 1986 Masters as a gesture to a friend is fitting. After all, this is Jack’s Place, home to the PGA Tour’s annual stomp in his childhood stomping grounds since 1976 and a designated event for the first time this week.
The field is stacked with seven of the top 10 and 28 of the top 35 in the world. And the merchandise tent is stacked with hats, t-shirts and even hoodies. Perhaps the most controversial item is an item from Camp David, which is selling a sweatshirt emblazoned “the MT.” That may be the first time anyone has called the Memorial Tournament by that nickname.
Here’s a look at the gear on sale this week at Jack’s Place.
