I just flipped on NBC to watch a few minutes of the US Open while having lunch

NBC was interviewing Mike Davis and the quote from Mike "The USGA is a not-for profit entity".  I almost choked on my lunch laughing - The USGA is a not for profit like the Catholic Church or the Salvation Army (very different NFP's)?

Would you hold it near as it were your own....."

It's a 501(c)(3). Most sports organizations are nonprofits, including the PGA Tour (a 501(c)(6)). Fascinating reading for when someone cries poor.

Especially emphasized in the post Walter Driver private jet leasing era!


I do wish Mike Davis a happy landing where he may go next!

That wasn't a lucky guess, was it?

No, it wasn't. I've known this for some time.  ;)
