Bobby Locke Golf Polo Shirt - Premium Left Chest Golf Fan Merchandise
Celebrate one of golf's great original characters with this Bobby Locke polo shirt from Players Couture, made for fans of the legendary South African golfer and his unmistakable putting touch.
The colourful poster-style Bobby Locke badge logo sits neatly on the left chest, creating a premium, easy-to-wear look that feels like genuine golf performance wear rather than novelty merchandise. It is designed for golfers and fanatics who want to represent their favourite hero out on the course without relying on oversized branding or obvious prints. Whether you are heading to the first tee, playing in a society day, travelling to a tournament or relaxing in the clubhouse afterwards, this polo brings golf culture into your everyday wardrobe.
Bobby Locke's record includes four Open Championship victories, won in 1949, 1950, 1952 and 1957, placing him among a select group of true Open legends. His first triumph came in 1949 when he defeated Harry Bradshaw in a 36-hole play-off, before he set a new championship scoring record at Royal Troon in 1950 and added further wins at Royal Lytham and St Annes in 1952 and the Old Course at St Andrews in 1957.
Locke was a dominant force in South African golf, winning the South African Open nine times and becoming one of the country's first global sporting superstars. He was famous for his putting touch and helped create one of golf's best-known sayings: you drive for show, but putt for dough. His influence on the game was recognised with induction into the World Golf Hall of Fame.
Performance Fabric and Technical Details
This Bobby Locke polo shirt is built for real golf performance, not just for looking the part. It is made from 100% polyester with a 140gsm recycled polyester construction, using a Neoteric™ textured fabric with inherent wickability to help pull moisture away from the skin during your round. Built-in UPF 30+ UV protection helps guard against sun exposure over four hours on the course, while the self fabric collar, taped neck and three self-colour button placket give it a clean, classic golf silhouette. Twin needle sleeves and hem add durability for repeated wear and washing. The fabric is PETA-Approved Vegan, meaning it is animal-friendly and cruelty-free, and it is produced through a BSCI-audited supply chain, reflecting an ethically managed manufacturing process from a business social compliance perspective.
This Bobby Locke golf polo is ideal for early tee times, society days, tournament weekends, golf holidays, driving range sessions and watching The Masters or The Open with friends. It performs on the course thanks to its wicking, UV-protective fabric, and looks just as good off it, paired with chinos, shorts or jeans for the nineteenth hole.
Available in 18 colours: Black, White, Navy, Bottle Green, Charcoal, Light Blue, Light Gray, Red, Burgundy, Green, Blue, Sapphire Blue, Turquoise, Purple, Hot Pink, Orange, Yellow and Lime Green. Sizes run from S to 3XL, with Black, White and Navy also available in XS, 4XL and 5XL for a wider fit range. If you would prefer a 100% cotton pique polo shirt as an alternative to this cool performance fabric, please get in touch and we can arrange this for you.
It also makes a strong gift idea for fathers, brothers, partners, mates, golf society members and anyone who has followed Bobby Locke through his career. It is a thoughtful choice for birthdays, Father's Day, Christmas, golf holidays, captain's prizes or simply as a way to add something different to a golf fan clothing collection.
