Abstract

A golf jersey comprises a shirt having a collar with at least one digit on the back of the jersey. Such a jersey can expand into a matched set that provides recognition of a golfer and provides advertisements and financial benefits to the golfer, other individuals, or an organization, without necessarily requiring third party endorsements. The matched set can be utilized to promote awareness in the public domain by way of a U-tube Video®, Facebook®, Instagram®, and Twitter®, thereby promoting a cause, like non-golf businesses or charities. The matched set can help aspiring golfers to support themselves in NGA, PGA, or LPGA events, who do not currently have necessary resources. The matched set can include a sensing device that could aid in crowd control, policing, monitoring of individuals, and tracking on and off of a golf course.
