Business Insider was at the Ryder Cup on Friday, where some full-body American flags outfits and group costumes instead of the typical golf polo.
The Ryder Cup: immaculate greens, $28 cocktails, and people swapping their usual Friday attire for head-to-toe American flag outfits.
Business Insider attended the biennial golf tournament on Friday, when temperatures at the Bethpage Black golf course in Long Island, New York, reached around 80 degrees. Between the sweat-dotted polo shirts, baseball caps, and seemingly ubiquitous khaki, some groups coordinated eye-catching outfits. President Donald Trump, for his part, showed up in white golf shoes and a suit without a tie.
In some ways, it felt like being at a July 4th carnival, and the many American flag overalls started to look benign. A good number of brave attendees draped European Union flags across their backs.
Here are some of the looks that caught our eye.Head-to-toe flags
