USGA Employee Removed for Reselling US Open Tix
« on: August 17, 2021, 08:07:33 PM »

This is the part that made me chuckle:


“The defendant allegedly stole revenue from a legitimate business that pays taxes, employs many, supports a non-profit organization"[/size]

Very poor form to rip off the largest hedge fund in golf.

For those who didn't cut and paste Bruce's micro-sized link, the employee stole and re-sold more than a million dollars worth of tickets (!) over seven years.

Thus, once again, proving that USGA isn't exactly a shining example of a well-run not-for-profit institution. Seems as if every decade they find a way to prove they are far from worthy stewards of capital. With any luck, maybe Mike Whan can help them get out of their own way?
