Martha Surfaces! Drags Tiger Into Augusta Membership Discussion
/Stephen Hennessey of GolfDigest.com tracks down Hootie Johnson heckler Martha Burk and needless to say, she has an opinion on the Ginni Rometty/Augusta National/IBM situation.
"They should say they no longer participate [in sponsoring the Masters]," Burk told Golfdigest.com late Wednesday, speaking from a hotel room in Washington D.C. Augusta National's male-only membership "is an archaic policy that does not agree with their company's values. The board of directors has a responsibility here too. The board needs to distance the company from this club. But they've had that responsibility for the past nine years, and they haven't done anything about it."
And Tiger, who hasn't got a thing to do with any of this. It's his fault too!
"Tiger Woods does not have the balls to even articulate an opinion on this," she said. "So I have no respect for Tiger Woods, he has no backbone, and I'm not expecting any shred of integrity from him on this issue."
