There's a strict dress code at Augusta National Golf Club, especially at the Masters.

Caddies must wear white overalls. No one can wear shorts. And Jason Day needs to tone down his attire this year.

But Cameron Smith of Australia may have taken formality to new heights on Wednesday morning.

At the tournament where the winner is famously presented with an iconic green jacket, the 2022 British Open champion showed up to the Augusta National driving range nattily attired in a blue blazer. And he continued to wear it on the course as the back of it fluttered in the wind during a practice round.

Temperatures at Augusta were below 50 early in the morning but are supposed to get into the mid-60s by afternoon.

Smith isn't entered in the Masters Par 3 contest, so unfortunately fans won't be able to see him competing in the blue jacket.
