Halloween 2017 is officially a wrap, and it’s time to turn the page to November and Thanksgiving. Soon it will be Christmas, and even sooner it will be Masters Thursday… we don’t mean to rush, but, get excited people.

But first, we rounded up all the best golf-related costumes from October 31st, and there were some good ones. We’ll kick it off with the best-of-the-best and move our way down from there. Not to declare a “winner” of Halloween, since literally everyone on the internet “won” Halloween in some capacity, but this kid just might have:

The attention to detail here is impeccable. From the Polo and Citi logos to the tie, to the shoes, it’s very well done. If we had to nitpick though, where’s the Scotty Cameron putter? Almost perfect. Now, on to the rest…

Pretty solid all around, except we’re not sure what Rickie is. If you go of Allison Stokke’s caption, a smiling ghost? No clue.

Rickie Fowlers

Speaking of Rickie, he was a pretty popular choice for trick-or-treaters this year:

Olympic tattoo included. Outstanding.

Aspiring LPGA Tour pro Hailey Ostrom went with the tattoo and the stache. Spot on.

15 out of 10 on the adorable scale.

Jordan Spieths

HUGE points for the green jacket.

Little Greller going all Nike…. not a good look for Under Armour.

Feel like the guy with the beard should have been Greller here.

BEEEEF

This looks like the same kid that was dressed as Beef last year, which he should just continue to do every year at this point.

Not terrible, but the beard game is pretty weak.

JT

These two had an uphill battle against the kid in the cardigan, but they still did an OK job.

The Shark

No idea what Norman is supposed to be, but then again, we didn’t know last year either.

???

Masters caddies in wrinkly as hell… ponchos? Come on guys, be better.

Paulina… always festive around the holidays.

Alright, sorry Justin Thomas kid, this guy wins.

Two-time Omega Dubai Ladies Masters starter Paige Spiranac got into the festive mood with a Christmas onesie.

World No.1 Jason Day just did it by switching to the Swoosh, announcing an apparel deal with Nike with a gangsta New Year’s day billboard style Instagram post. Here’s hoping the Aussie can get through 2017 in good health.

Meanwhile women’s No.1 Lydia Ko was a little more festive.

Four-time Omega Dubai Ladies Masters champion Shanshan Feng was looking forward to a break from the sticks as well.

Sir Nick Faldo was apparently prepped for an interesting Christmas day.

Talking of legends, how about nine-time major champ Gary Player renewing his vows with wife Vivienne after 60 years of marriage. Easily the classiest golfing act of 2017 thus far from the Black Knight.

“Rolling into ’17 like…” – Rickie Fowler re-posted our absolute favourite social media pic of 2016 after seeing in the New Year with, well, no one particularly special it seems. Might we see an influx of female admirers outside the ropes when Fowler defends the Abu Dhabi HSBC Golf Championship from January 19?

Cheers to 2017 from LPGA star Blair O’Neal.

ICYMI: How could you possibly top Tiger’s “Xmas tradition that my Kids love” – the classic “Mac Daddy Santa”?

Leave it to ‘Beef’. What a lad.
