(CNN) — From mergers to majors, not to mention a breathless Solheim and Ryder Cup double header, it’s been another turbulent year in the world of golf — a chaos reflected in the wardrobe choices of many of the sport’s stars.

Scroll through the gallery to see the golfers — and fans — that turned the fairway into a runway this season.
