A Swedish golfer who this week emerged victorious from a tournament in the US has continued to make the headlines because of his lack of golf clothing.

Henrik Stenson completed a 66 this weekend to wipe away competition for the title at the Players Championship.

But despite this win, his golf clothing - or lack of - continues to make the news.

While playing a water hazard at Doral two months ago, Stenson removed all of his golf apparel to play the shot while wearing nothing but his underwear and a golf glove.

"I guess I got as much attention off that thing as from my results the last ten years," the player said, adding that this "is obviously going to be the latest thing on the resume".

Stenson added that he is confident that he'll be able to continue his latest form into the majors, managing to beat some of the biggest names in the game.

Indeed, playing against the world's top players seems to bring out the best in his game, the Swedish golfer believes.
