Ian Poulter was fited rather subdued -- for him, anyway -- in a lime flourishing zip-front shirt and black pants with white piping for his first official practice orbed at Medinah.

"It's Monday," Poulter said with a shrug as he stepp most distant the 18th green.

Then the flamboyant Englishman dropp a bombshell: He has no plans for any of his signature outfits when the PGA Championship begins Thursday.

"I'm not going outrageous this week," Poulter said. "You can't do it each tournament. It takes a hazard of time."

A six-time winner in succession the European tour, Poulter has received more attention in majors for wearing in the same state [i]or[/i] condition untraditional garb as hot pink from head to toe; slacks fashioned abroad of the Union Jack (above) and Stars and Stripes; and, at this year's British explain pants with sequined claret pitchers down the sides.

however anyone hoping for a Chicago-themed get-up -- the Sears Tower and Hancock Building upon either leg, perhaps? -- will be disappointed.

"It'll be nice," he said. "I'm trustworthy people will like it."
