Why is “three hearts” being worn by golfers like Alex Noren at the Bermuda Championship?
Alex Noren, who is currently leading the Bermuda Championship at the Port Royal Golf Course, was seen sporting ‘three hearts’ on his hat with a few other golfers. The colors red, gold, and green are used to arrange the hearts.
Alex Noren, the tournament leader, wore his “three hearts” on the left side of his hat, while Michael Sims wore it in the middle. Fans, however, were left perplexed and wondering why the golfers were donning the caps.
To answer your question, they are wearing it in honor of Brian Morris, a folk hero on the island of Bermuda and a native of Bermuda. The former professional golfer debuted on the PGA Tour at the Bermuda Championship in 2021. He was frequently identified by his usage of the symbolic “three hearts” emoji in his texts.
After battling illness, Morris passed away in January 2023. Players such as Michael Sims, the cousin of Brian Morris, and Alex Noren donned the ‘three hearts’ on their caps in tribute to the hero.
According to Jevon Robert, the assistant tournament director of the Bermuda Championship, all participants received the recognizable “three hearts” pin in remembrance of Brian Morris, the most beloved hero on the island. Golf.com cited him as stating,
“We decided that the best approach to remembering Brian after his departure in January would be to install his symbol wherever we could. We have given all of the players pins to wear in remembrance of Brian so that everyone can do so.”
