El Pres,

Just wanted to send this pic to you of the Closest to Pin sheet on hole #17 at Kernwood today during our Ladies Invitational. One of our favorite guests just had a Hole in One, Linda Portnoy. We thought we would share this with you from your some of your biggest fans.

Well this is a stunning development.  Just stunning.  I guess my mom just got a hole in one a couple minutes ago?  I’m sort of happy for her, but I’m never gonna hear the end of it. Also now mine will be devalued when I get one. Like nobody remembers the 2nd guy to land on the moon.  She’s the first Portnoy to get a hole in one. Stunning development.   Just stunning.  I feel like she should have won a car or something for getting it during a tournament too. And to answer the question I generally do root against hole in ones.  I played with McShay once when he got a hole in one.  Legit ruined my week.  I generally root against success for everybody but myself.  At least I don’t have to worry about my dad beating me to one though since he lays up on par 3’s.   Hey dad boom roasted.

PS – Such a cocky thing to write on a closest to the pin sheet.   That’s the Portnoy mojo.   Like hey Ethel Hess take a hike bitch.
