...PHIL MICKELSON, 33, the Masters, his first victory in any of golf's four major tournaments, after 47 tries; in Augusta, Ga. One year after his worst season, he acquired a new swing and a slimmer physique and, with a dramatic birdie putt on the 18th hole, won the coveted green blazer...

That's a scary thought. After crushing the 1997 Masters with a 12-stroke win to become, at 21, Augusta's youngest champion, Tiger went through a similar drought, going 28 months without winning a major. He followed that lag with the Tiger Slam: four straight titles, from the 2000 U.S. Open through the 2001 Masters. Like Wayne Gretzky and Michael Jordan before him, Tiger has blurred perspective.

Now another exclusive Peach State club, Atlanta's Druid Hills Golf Club, is facing pressure on the gay-rights front in a dispute that has pitted the city's country-club elite against the Atlanta political establishment...

...Ronald Daniel should not wait until the end of the academic year to step down as Treasurer of the University (News, “University Treasurer to Retire,” Sept. 22). His membership in Augusta National Golf Club, along with Harvard Senior Fellow James R. Houghton ’58 and Harvard Management Corporation Director Robert G. Stone Jr. ’45, makes a mockery of Harvard’s standard of non-discrimination. If membership in a discriminatory club is more important to these individuals than the image and reputation of Harvard University, all should resign...
