PGA Tour Champions star golfer Boo Weekley lost his luggage on his way to Canada for the Rogers Charity Classic. Ahead of the tournament, the American golfer revealed that his luggage went missing while traveling from Seattle to Calgary for this week’s PGA Tour Champions event. He then rushed to Walmart to purchase new clothes for the tournament.

During a practice session ahead of the event, Weekley shared the incident and described it as part of an "adventurous year." Despite losing his luggage, he was pleased with his new clothes, proudly stating that he "did a pretty good job" matching his "fashion statement."

Speaking of the incident, Weekley said (via PGA Tour Champions on X):

"You know, it's been an adventurous year anyway. Cause, you know, we've ....rented a U-Haul and then lost my luggage a couple of other places and well, you know, another week of losing luggage, so we ain't found our luggage yet. They don't know where it is, and it's WestJet that's lost it.
"And we flew straight from Seattle to Calgary. And somehow, on a two-hour flight there, we lost my luggage. So I went to Walmart today and bought me some Ben Hogan clothes. You know, I picked it out myself. So I thought I did a pretty good job of, you know, a fashion statement as I am," he added.

Notably, Boo Weekley will tee off this week at the Rogers Charity Classic. The tournament will begin with the first round on Friday, August 16, and will run for three days, concluding with the final round on Sunday, August 18, at Canyon Meadows Golf and Country Club in Calgary, Canada.
