Kevin Na
We kid Kevin for all of the whacky Elord designs he has worn this year, but he finally landed on a solid one. This denim-effect polo looks cool because it creates interest through texture as opposed to pattern. Those are the type of subtle details we can get behind.

Smylie Kaufman
Smylie showed his pearly whites in Las Vegas after winning his first PGA Tour title at Schriners Hospitals For Children Open. Kaufman's Sunday style was sharp and simple: gray pants and a well-fitting white polo that look never gets old.

Rickie Fowler
This is some seriously boss headgear! Rickie has always looked sharp in this small curve brim, but now his hat says KING (named after his new Puma Driver) and it looks awesome in every color. Sure the typeface is cool, but let's be real. He's wearing a cap that says KING and that just looks really sweet.

Ryo Ishikawa
Not all plaid pants are created equal, and the tone and scale of Ryo's trousers make them look more "modern tour pro" than "bad Caddyshack costume." A good mix of black and gray always helps soften a pattern, and the smaller square pattern help make these pants look less optical.

Jason Dufner
The Dufman finally lost the white belt! This is the way to do it. You don't need to match the color of your pants or polo exactly. You've just got to stay in the same color tone. This green-on-teal move is perfect.

Justin Rose
Solid work from Rose this weekend. The UBS Hong Kong Open champion put these two solid looks in sharp color together this weekend and rolled into the winner's circle. A white pant pops any outfit, and this a very cool look at how the simplest looks can feel very stylish.

That said, white pants tend to look better with lighter-colored shoes. Less contrast below the belt equals smoother style from head to toe.

I love this look. This is the perfect way to blend minimal, modern color with personal touches of pop color. I really do like the neon movement trending on and off the course this year, but it's important to remember a little pop color goes a long way. Hats, shoes, belts and other accessories are some of the best ways to bring this bright move into the most amount of your looks without going full on day-glow.

Patterned outerwear is another look that I love and hope to see more of in 2016. Most of the foul-weather gear on the PGA Tour tends to be blue, black and boring. Most men would do well to take a page out of Ko's book here and look for a small check rain jacket like this one. This is exactly what we're talking about when we say, "stand out in subtle style."

Flex the floral! Floral prints aren't going anywhere next season, and I'm looking forward to seeing more botanical bottoms on both tours in 2016. I get that most guys may be weary of wearing flowers, but no matter what pattern your working with, playing with prints on a darker ground makes any design easier to wear. If you're taking the pattern-pant training wheels off this season, follow Lin's lead and keep whatever you wear against a black base and your patterns in abstract designs.
