Three days of intensive, engaging, and enjoyable leadership development at the @GCSAA Women’s Leadership Academy! Programs like this strengthen our profession while investing in the growth of its people. Always a pleasure to spend time w/ Rear Admiral Jackie McClellan #Inspiring

Yesterday's #GCSAAConference logistics meeting had me daydreaming about jambalaya and live jazz. Plenty to get ready but I'm looking forward to being back in New Orleans!

Bob Searle stuck with nearly a year of tough public meetings to help secure a golf course exemption in Portland, Maine's pesticide ordinance. That's dedication! Congratulations, Bob, on your Excellence in Government Affairs Award. Thanks for speaking up for all of us.

Great insights at the @NGF 90th Anniversary Symposium in Chicago. With 30.8 million on-course golfers, I’m excited about the opportunity to help shape golf’s future. We’re in a demand surplus. Let’s keep working together to make the game even better!

Kerry’s helped deliver some of golf’s biggest events, including the @PGAChampionship + @RyderCup. I value his friendship and have always respected the thought and care he puts into preparing a championship venue + his genuine respect for the supers who make it possible. Congrats!

Great day at the #AGIC mtgs & annual fundraiser! Enjoyed playing @RTJGolf w/ @RepArrington. My good friend @SfurlongScott served as my caddie, but
after consistently handing me the wrong club and a dirty golf ball, he’s off the bag next time! LOL. Great seeing his this team!

I’ve been around hundreds of golf tournaments, and it never ceases to amaze me how @GCSAA members show up for one another.

At @BlackDesertUT, @lucky9803 Ken Yates, his team & all the volunteers start early, stay late & do whatever it takes. Talent. Teamwork. Service. Proud.

100 years ago today, Col. John Morley founded @GCSAA on principles that still guide us today. I often ask myself, “What would John Morley do?”

It was never about a place. It was about people.

Thank you, John, for laying the foundation. Here’s to the next 100. #GCSAA100 ONWARD!
