So Sorenstam is this rediculously good female golfer who has recently said she wants to play in some PGA open tour events (i.e. only men play but are technically open to everyone), cf. this article. Several tournaments have offered her spots and it'll be interesting to see how she does, apparently she's really obscenely good, so if she picks a short course she might be somewhat competative. Anyway I was thinking about this and it crossed my mind what a good PR move it would be for The Masters to invite her, its a long course so she probably wouldn't go and wouldn't make the cut if she did, but offering would be a really good way for the Augusta National club to reverse some of their bad PR (from not having any female members). It won't happen, but it'd be interesting.
