Golf House Blues
/I hate to overshadow the release of the USGA's annual report (kind of amazing to see those total liabilities and net assets down $101 million from last year). But after much contemplation and legal consultation (well, not really), I've decided to share the satirical newsletter that's been circulating around the USGA's cheery Golf House. Apparently the satire, sent to me anonymously, has not been appreciated by some in upper management (shock!) even though it could have been so much worse.
While much of the material is of the inside baseball variety, it speaks to the toxic environment created by the Walter Driver era. I doubt similar newsletters are floating around the PGA Tour, PGA of America or R&A. Then again, they probably don't have lifted-from-the-Goldman Sachs playbook initiatives named PAR...Proactive, Accessible, and Relevant.
Because it's a large document in small type, it's presented here in two windows. Click to enlarge:
