Quote
PGA Tour commissioner Jay Monahan and player director Adam Scott met with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House on Tuesday in an effort to speed up the federal government's approval of the tour's deal with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, which would be a significant step in reunifying men's professional golf.

In a statement on Thursday, Monahan, Scott and player director Tiger Woods, who was not at the White House meeting, said Trump's efforts have brought them closer to finalizing a deal with the PIF, which is prepared to invest $1.5 billion into PGA Tour Enterprises.

Maybe twenty years ago, I had someone approach me about building a seaside golf course in Israel.  I wondered if it would be a safe place for my associates to live and work, and after thinking about whom to ask, I wrote an email to Thomas Friedman, still a columnist then at the New York Times.


His response was that Israel in general was safer than it sounded over here, but to make sure that the seaside property was not in mortar range of the Gaza Strip.  Indeed, it was.


So I suspect if Gaza is to be cleared out, I know where is the valuable land to develop.
