It's a combination of things. His suits are dark, and dark clothing makes you look slimmer. His golf clothing is light.
His suits are deliberately a bit baggy and cut in such a way that it disguises his bulk.
Also, and this is only a rumor AFAIK, it has been said he wears a girdle. If you look at him wearing suits, you'll notice his midsection is smooth. When he is wearing golf clothes, his stomach pooches over his waistband.
I would wager if he's wearing any sort of support, it would be a back brace, not a girdle. And I would think a backbrace would mess with one's golf swing, which is why he doesn't wear it while golfing. But I don't golf, so I very well could be wrong there.
I really don't think he's wearing much, if any, armor on the golf course.
They would give a smoother appearance under his clothes. Absolutely no disrespect to him or other large people, but he has a more "squishy" and "jiggly" appearance to him, rather than the smoother and structured look armor would give.
Also, I would think that body armor would make it difficult to swing a golf club. I don't play golf or wear body armor, so I can't be certain about that.

Agree about the back brace. He has some junk in the trunk in a good way. I also think the suit coat covers him up quite a bit.
And perhaps he’s in more danger on golf course, so more armor on him then.

Perhaps something is stitched into his jacket. I would think the golf course open spaces could be a dangerous place for him.
