   Augusta National has admitted two female members, Condoleezza Rice and Darla Moore. I'm a little surprised that IBM CEO Virginia Rometty wasn't admitted. Maybe they didn't want to set the precedent that every IBM CEO gets admitted to the club?

   Just read up on Ms. Moore, very impressive person, now I think I understand the choice a little better.

   I wonder if Condee and Darla will get to have the course to themselves for their Club Championship. Two days, maybe a nice weekend in early April. Just the two of them.

   Real question- did they have to build a whole new set of tees?

   Did they have to build a whole new locker room? Set of bathrooms in the clubhouse? Agree with Hootie and glad they didn't relent at the point of a bayonet,... but what took so long?

   Hey, wait a minute. Mine was a real question, too.
   
   Will they have a Women's Club Championship? Maybe closed to men members on Thursday and Friday for practice rounds? Followed by a 1st and 10th tee starting times for the women on Saturday and Sunday? They won't even see each other 'til they're done. They'd have to trust each other as far as scoring goes.
   
   I don''t know, just curious.
