Best golf rainwear and apparel

We don’t think the heavy stuff is gonna come down for quite a while…

The forecast is touch and go early at Augusta this week, with rain scheduled for Thursday morning and possibly beyond.

Some people shrink away from a little rain, but we don’t think the heavy stuff is gonna come down for quite a while. If you’re reading this, you’re not one to call off a tee time just because there’s a small chance of rain, tiny gusts of wind, or a litttle nip in the air.

Here at Golfweek, we’ll weather the weather whatever the weather, and keep you as dry as possible on the course. Check out our list of best rain apparel and check back later this week for our list of best rain accessories.

Angel Reese announced she is declaring for the 2024 WNBA Draft with an amazing Vogue photoshoot

This was such a cool move from Angel Reese.

After winning a title last season, LSU star Angel Reese is turning pro.

Reese, however, didn’t just make the announcement with a post on Twitter or Instagram like many other basketball prospects. Instead, she announced her plans with a photoshoot in Vogue.

She also tweeted some of the images included in the article with a caption quoting “Dip” by Nicki Minaj. It was a strong statement from Reese, who will hear her name called as one of the first picks in the 2024 WNBA Draft.

Reese explained that she was inspired by Serena Williams, who announced her retirement from tennis in 2022 with a fashion photoshoot (via Vogue):

“I’ve done everything I wanted to in college,” Reese says: “I’ve won a national championship, I’ve gotten [Southeastern Conference] Player of the Year, I’ve been an All-American. My ultimate goal is to be a pro—and to be one of the greatest basketball players to play, ever. I feel like I’m ready.”

She added that she didn’t want to be basic with her announcement.

The 2023 NCAA Tournament Most Outstanding Player led her team back to the Elite Eight this season.

PHOTOS: Nicki Minaj at NBA games through the years

Nicki Minaj, known for her bold fashion and chart-topping hits, has made her mark on the NBA scene over the years. The rapper has been spotted courtside at various games, including the 2015 NBA All-Star Game in New York City, where she performed alongside Ariana Grande, and the All-Star Game in 2012. Her energetic performances and larger-than-life personality have made her a fan favorite among players and fans alike.

Check out some of her pictures through the years down below.

Duke star Jared McCain explained why he paints his nails in his latest TikTok during March Madness

Duke’s Jared McCain doesn’t care if his painted nails offend you.

Duke Blue Devils freshman guard Jared McCain is easily one of the biggest stars of the March Madness tournament so far.

McCain, a former McDonald’s All-American and Mr. California Basketball, was a consensus five-star recruit coming out of high school before eventually committing to play for Duke.

He has had a solid season in college but especially stood out during the early rounds of the NCAA men’s basketball tournament. The impressive guard had 30 points in a win against James Madison during the Round of 32.

Not only was it a stellar showing but he looked good doing it, too. Some fans have noticed that like Caleb Williams, the projected No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, McCain keeps freshly manicured nails on his fingers.

Y’all have been asking. @Sally Hansen is the GOAT 🐐! There’s no better nail polish in the game 💅💅 #SallyHansenPartner

When he is not on the court, McCain also keeps an active TikTok profile.

For his latest video, he recently explained why he likes to paint his nails.

“Just do some self-care time. I think everyone should do self-care for themselves. For me, it’s nail painting. I’m sorry if that offends any of you guys.”

The video was a paid partnership with Sally Hansen as part of an NIL.

He continued, adding more context to why he likes the look so much:

“There’s really no crazy reason to it. It helps me not bite my nails. I went to a salon one time and I decided to pick out a color and I thought it looked nice and I know a lot of people disagree. A lot of people don’t like it. I’m just going to be myself and do what I think looks nice. One of the reason why I kept painting my nails is I had a game after I painted my nails and I ended up playing really well. I’m not crazy superstitious but I thought it looked nice and I thought it helped me play better and so far it’s worked so I’m just going to keep doing it.”

We recently projected McCain as a lottery pick in the latest edition of our 2024 NBA Mock Draft.

Puma releases new Phantomcat Nitro golf shoe to be worn by Rickie Fowler

It’s Puma’s most advanced shoe yet.

The new Phantomcat Nitro golf shoe has been released, and it’s Puma’s most advanced shoe yet.

This shoe looks good, but the technology behind the Phantomcat takes it to a whole new level. The new nitrogen infused foam in the heel helps give an improved rebound and lightweight response as you walk. Say goodbye to squished toes, Puma has restructured its toe box with an anatomically shaped last providing a better fit for more golfers.

In addition, the new Flexspike design provides an upgraded traction system. Flexspike was engineered to increase surface contact with the ground with its uniquely shaped cleats. These cleats provide a greater grip in the ground and better weight distribution, making these shoes feel lighter and more comfortable. The Flexspike technology allows the foot to move in all different directions as you swing and walk throughout the day.

The Phantomcat Nitro includes a 1-year waterproof guarantee with its full grain leather uppers. The TPU outsole is made up of a molded heel panel and secondary traction elements to help lock the foot into place.

“The Phantomcat Nitro is our most advanced shoe to date,” said Andrew Lawson, Senior PLM Footwear at Puma Golf. “Nitro foam and Flexspike technology gives the golfer a combination of traction and comfort like never before. The feedback we’ve received from our Tour Athletes has been fantastic and I can’t wait for golfers to try this shoe.” 

These shoes will be worn by some of your favorite tour players such as Rickie Fowler, Gary Woodland, Justin Suh and JJ Spaun.
