Interesting tidbit from THIS Bloomberg article released on Wednesday.
“As Augusta National Golf Club prepares to host the competition next week, it faces a quandary: The club hasn’t admitted a woman as a member since its founding eight decades ago, yet it has historically invited the chief executive officer of IBM, one of three Masters sponsors. Since the company named Rometty to the post this year, Augusta will have to break tradition either way.”
Two years ago, Billy Payne took to his Masters podium and talked openly and sternly about the poor example that Tiger Woods set. Maybe it’s time that they start focusing on getting their own house in order as well. They reserve the right, but that doesn’t make it right in my view. Now is a perfect time to do the right thing.
