Joe's interview ends at 14:00 He hints that everyone on the golf circuit knows Christine.. WORTH A LISTEN!!

Interesting stuff tonight on TWO FoxNews shows.Atty. Joe DiGenova made very cryptic remarks, indicating to me that Christine Ford has had some relationships with PGA golfers that she won't like exposed.He was gently smirking while saying, (I paraphrase) "Don't talk to PGA golfers about Dr. Ford. Oh no .... you don't want to talk to PGA golfers."It seems a dark story about the accuser and PGA golfers is right around the corner.I guess we'll see.

What follows is a lovely object lesson – one for the books, really – showcasing the blind, unreasoning hatred of a media talking head toward President Donald Trump. Earlier this week, ESPN’s Max Kellerman saw fit to publicly denigrate golf great Tiger Woods for his refusal to become enrolled in the political left’s campaign of calumny and invective aimed at Trump. Apparently, Woods was asked on Sunday after the final round of The Northern Trust tournament about his relationship with Trump. As it happens, Woods and Trump have played golf together on more than a few occasions. In response to...

In the days after white golf course owners called the police on five African American women they said were not playing fast enough, a Pennsylvania state senator has called for an investigation into the incident and the club is losing local business. On April 21, the women were told by owners and employees of the Grandview Golf Course in York County, Pa., that they were taking too long. The club offered to refund their memberships and then called 911.

It is easy for golfers to “turn a blind eye to [their] privilege,” athlete claims A professional athlete has identified an unexpected source of white privilege at our institutions of higher education: the back nine. “Golf is a perfect example of the world we live in terms of the haves and have nots,” writes Anya Alvarez at Salon. Alvarez writes of discovering “the white privilege in college sports” when she learned that less-popular sports (such as golf) are often bankrolled by a university’s football and basketball programs—“the labor,” she writes, “of African-American athletes on the football and basketball teams who...

On Sept. 15, the Springfield, Va.-based nonprofit organization – whose name means “always communication” --will host the SemperComm Golf Classic at Fort Belvoir, Va. The $450 per team, or $125 per individual, entry fee pays for all fees associated with the tournament, as well as dinner afterward, Lara Coffee, SemperComm Foundation’s executive director, said. A portion of the fees is tax deductible. Coffee explained that SemperComm provides personnel...

NEW YORK, April 1 (UPI) -- New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg says golf fairways would suffer if illegal immigrants were returned to their native country. "You and I are beneficiaries of these jobs," Bloomberg told his WABC-AM radio co-host, John Gambling. "You and I both play golf; who takes care of the greens and the fairways in your golf course?" However, Robert Heaney, general manager of Deepdale Golf Club -- a Long Island course where Bloomberg often plays -- told The New York Daily News that no illegal immigrants work at the club. "Deepdale Golf Club has always been in...

Mystery over 47 missing golfers Gethin Chamberlain ORGANISERS of the Open Championship have launched an investigation after 47 out of 48 Nigerians granted visas to enter Britain to take part in the competition failed to turn up for their games. There are suspicions that some of the would-be golfers had no intention of taking part in the tournament but used the event as an excuse to get past immigration controls. The Royal and Ancient Golf Club, which organises the tournament, has expressed surprise at the size of the entry from a country not normally associated with top-class golf, and concern...
