Wow. I just read over on ESPN that a 102 year old woman, became the oldest golfer ever to hit a hole in one on a regulation golf course.
Contratulations to Elsie McLean on an amazing shot.

Teenager Michelle Wie will be the first woman in over 60 years to play in the third round of a PGA men’s tournament. Some people have asked whether it’s right to allow a woman to play in the PGA. After all, no one would ask if men could play in the LPGA.

The reason men aren’t allowed to play in the LPGA is that it would be completely unfair. Michelle Wie is an exception because it is VERY hard for a woman to compete against men of similar ability in golf. Typically, men drive the ball farther than a woman can even think about driving it. If Michelle Wie can compete at a level that is harder than what is expected from her, then more power to her. If a man who can’t cut it in the PGA wants to go compete against the ladies… well, I think we can all see what’s wrong with that.

Phil Mickelson won his second straight tournament yesterday. Mickelson won the Masters at Augusta National over Tim Clark by two shots with a 3 under 69.

You can read more about it in the Palm Beach Post (the newspaper I grew up with).
