    Default Condoleeza Rice

    Augusta National's first female member.

    Who saw that coming???
    I never learned from a man who agreed with me.

    Good for her.

    (Whether she was first or second is academic... two women were admitted. The other is some sort of businesswoman)

    "Some sort of businesswoman."

    Google Darla Moore. I'll say she's a businesswoman.

    14 handicap. Which is good, means she has talent but also has better things to do with her time.

    Yeah. Greenhouse gardening is far more exciting.

    It's a "contact'' sport.

    Is Liz Cheney next?

    Maybe they could give a posthumous membership to Eva Braun?
    For a social player, it's fine.

    I'll post where I please. When you get promoted to Scot, you can try to do something about where I post.

    Chip didn't even flinch! Boys , you know Golf is not a sport, per Andy Rooney. He said , " One must break a sweat to qualify as a sport". Don't mean to brag, but I had a handicap of 18, and that was just using a two iron and a putter, ....to think .... I coulda been a contender.

    'Golfer-in-chief' hits 100th round as president

    Seems Condi would be giving Pres. O a few shots as well as Bohner giving him 9.

    Boehner is listed as a 7.9 and Obama a 17 in Golf Digest's annual recap of Washington's power players, which means Obama should get nine shots.

    Yes, but can Boehner hit the three point shot from outside the paint? Screw golf.

    Can IBM's Virginia Rometty be far behind? Not if Augusta National knows what's good for them.

    Wonderful. One of the great homes of prejudice reconciles itself to a black female member. A spectacular token gesture to say the least.
