高圓領的風潮又被老虎伍茲帶回高爾夫賽場上了？
老虎伍茲過去就曾於2003年在別克邀請賽(Buick Invitational)上首次穿著高圓領風格的高爾夫球衣，當時也不經意地點燃了「高爾夫球場上球衣領型適當性」的爭論戰火。但自從那時起，老虎伍茲也就一直持續穿著這種高圓領球衣，包括2005年他在大師賽上的最後一次勝利。
高圓領球衣外觀上類似於高領毛衣，但領子沒有反折，而且通常有點寬鬆。高圓領球衣可以很容易地使用在高爾夫運動上，因為少了多於領片、簡潔的設計可以減少揮桿時分心和阻礙，穿著起來也格外舒適。在正確的穿著搭配風格之下，可以營造出乾淨而精緻的外觀。
老虎伍茲在奧古斯塔(Augusta)穿的Nike運動上衣注入了機能性元素，使其更適合高爾夫運動。布料有一定的伸展性，可以隨著動作伸展，但又能保持形狀不變形，以避免鬆弛布體面的外觀。吸濕排汗的技術也可讓運動時保持舒適。
對高爾夫運動而言高圓領風格高爾夫球衣在賽場上其實並不會陌生，在過去的公開錦標賽之中至少就有三位贏得葡萄壺獎盃(Claret Jug)的勝利者身上看到了高高的領子。1962年，的傑克·尼克勞斯在一件毛衣下穿了一件高領毛衣，托尼·傑克林在1969年穿了一個紫色的高領，加里·普萊爾則一直穿著領子的風格，並在1968年贏得獎杯。
雖然伍茲已經穿上了最具運動風格的版本，但這些都沒有阻止所有的批評者。整個賽事高圓領的風格都受到了激烈的反對，甚至和蘋果的史蒂夫喬布斯(Steve Jobs)相並討論。
遠離高爾夫傳統衣領的舉動，代表了高爾夫更接近一般大眾的生活。專業和業餘高爾夫愛好者也都絞盡腦汁展示更具運動風格的服裝穿搭。
“我認為那天的我看起來整潔俐落”伍茲在大師賽前的新聞發布會上說道。 “在以前那個年代，我的身材可能稍微好一些，但我確實是穿著高圓領運動衣也確實贏得了比較，我只是單純認為這是一個讓我很喜歡的穿著方式。”

The argument for Tiger Woods' mock neck shirt
Will Woods’ win bring the mock neck back?
Woods first debuted the mock turtleneck style golf shirt in 2003 at the Buick Invitational. It ignited a debate on the appropriate-ness of the collar-style on the golf course. He's continued to wear the shirt since, including at his last win at the Masters in 2005. Mock neck shirts are similar to turtlenecks but have a lower collar that is not folded over and typically fit a bit looser. It translates great into golf because the simplicity provides for a distraction-less swing, the relaxed fit is comfortable to play in and, when styled right, creates a clean and sophisticated look.
The Nike Dri-Fit shirt Woods wore at Augusta is infused with performance-ready elements that make it even more appropriate for golf. The polyester-cotton blend fabric has a ton of stretch that will move with you, but retain shape to avoid the baggy stretched-out look. A drop shoulder gives a little extra room for an unimpeded golf swing and the sweat-wicking technology allows for superior moisture management.
Mocks and turtleneck shirts are no stranger to golf. While Woods has worn the most athletic version of the style, high necks have been seen on at least three Claret Jug holders at the Open Championship. Jack Nicklaus wore a turtleneck under a sweater when he won in 1962, Tony Jacklin had a purple mock in 1969 and Gary Player, who consistently wears the collar style, had it on it holding the trophy in 1968.
Now, Woods and these players all have one major theme in common. Any style risk can be deemed successful, if you have the game to back it up. You can't make too much fun of the guy holding the trophy, when your hands are empty.
That, of course, didn't stop all the critics. The shirt was hotly debated throughout the weekend, with countless Steve Jobs references and anti-mock neck opinions.
The move away from traditional collars in golf has represented a relaxing of the culture of the game. Professional and casual golfers alike are showing up to the course more athletic-looking apparel, sneaker-like shoes and speakers blaring with music.
Whether Woods' shirt choice is fueled by historical significance, style or comfort, he certainly likes the style.
"I thought it was a pretty neat look back in the day," Woods said in a press conference before the Masters. "I was probably in a little better shape back in those days, but I had won events wearing the mock, and I just think that it's ‑‑ I've always enjoyed wearing them."
