Bruce Jenner Transitions To Womanhood In A Masters Shirt

Nice spot by reader Emile who spotted the photo of Bruce Jenner, announced by People Magazine as officially in transition, sporting a Masters shirt and khakis as he makes the move from man to woman.

The photo is credited to Splash News.

It certainly speaks to the power of the brand that even slightly obscured we know the logo.

Do you think it's a placement ad?

Time for Augusta to admit a transgendered person as a member. !

[ol Harv]

I thought I saw her, I mean him, on the grounds last year.

[BrianS]

At what point in this process does Bruce move up to the red tees?

[V60]

This picture is really funny. I cant think of any other clothing that screams WHITE AND MALE more than Khakis and golf shirt!! Bruce try at least some yoga pants.... geez stop trying to hide your feminine side..... it comes off being weird. LOL.

I always felt sorry for Bruce being in the Kardashian family reality show. He never had a hand in any power whatsoever. I'm still a bit shocked.

Come on Geoff, don't stoop this low on your site.

[nancy]

Earnest...Geoff has a unique sense of humor and a profound ability to put stuff out there for all of us think about; in golf and other "culture."

[fyg]

Is Bruce eligible for the new Senior Woman's Open?

[TA]

He looks like that Sasquatch from the Jack Links commercial. I wouldn't dare touch his Starbucks!

[BrianS]

@ fyg - that's what I was thinking ! Maybe that was his plan all along +1

[Center Cut]

Good luck to him / her. It's not as if he / she ever stole money from a fellow player, or cheated, and this must take tremendous courage to go through with.

Geoff, eager for your take on Pat Reed.

[Donald Luke]

Nancy, a "profound ability"?

[Geoff]

Center Cut And Donald,
As two of the lowliest trolls who complain almost daily about the choices of content here and yet who keep coming back with your loathsome, miserable and anonymous selves, please, blog away. And for a change, share your names and blog sites so we can read your thoughts should you decide to post going forward?

Cut, as to your 8th and I do hope final request for attention to the Reed story: it contains not a single named source, and about 8 other red flags, I've chose not to blog about it. I know you feel this is a credibility killer for this site, and you've made that clear with all of your anonymous posts. But please, just give up. Do something on your blog, or just please, go away.

And Nancy, thanks.

[Brad Ford]

If he transitions, can he try out for the Olympic team again?

True enough about the Patrick Reed story in Deadspin. But it's the Dawgs who didn't bark that really confirm the tale. And one of them did btw, remarking that "we all do stupid sh*t at 17." True enough there, also, but not that kind of stupid sh*t. Not for the vast majority of us.

[KG]

I love the blog Geoff, thank- you.
Appreciate most of the people who join the discussions, agree or disagree.
Now Jenner, the story reminded me of an old golf joke about an long married couple.
Punchline: "and all these years you have been beating me from the red tees!"
Quite sure it's PCincorrect now.

I'm not sure about the Deadspin article. There's an Omega Theta Pi vibe about the rest of the team and their saintly silence. Is it possible that Reed wasn't enough of a white boy for that environment? Only a damn fool would steal his teammates' money and flash it around the very next day.

[ol Harv]

KLG, Believe it or not the cheating in the qualifying round is pretty old news. I was always surprised it never came out but in the college golf community it was well known. I think it says a lot about Haack and his players that they took the high road for the most part.

[highside]

The High Road: anonymously accusing someone of larceny seven years after the (un)fact.

[ol Harv]

Cheating Highside, cheating. I said nothing of the larceny. You have to read.

[ol Harv]

" Is it possible that Reed wasn't enough of a white boy for that environment?"

You've obviously never hung out with Brian Harman.

[highside]

G'day Harv. It seems I'm the only who DID read the article.

"Whatever the reason for the silence, it was clear that the ESPN story had only struck a glancing blow—the truth went far deeper than a mere drunken night, and the real story was left unresolved. As another media member put it to me, "That was as close as anyone ever got, and they didn't get that close."

What makes me suspicious is the timing. Patrick Reed is now in the enviable position many on that team would kill to inhabit. Only now, seven long years after the fact, are they anonymously accusing the guy of stealing their parent's money. I'm sure Reed is a colossal jerk, and he probably cheats at golf. But that article has got nothing made of a substance that holds up buildings.

[Center Cut]

Feel free to delete this again Geoff.

I just wanted your take on the story. If there are at least 8 red flags with the article, why are others not taking the Deadspin piece apart?
The piece seems to be right up your street.

[ol Harv]

"Only now, seven long years after the fact, are they anonymously accusing the guy of stealing their parent's money."

Somehow, and for some very odd reason Highside, you want to blame the other guys on the team for something Reed has actually not denied. Do you know the kids on that team with Reed? Do you know that the money stolen was given to the boys by their parents? They're not the ones coming forward with the story. It's remained out of the headlines for years even though many inside the college golf community knew the truth about the cheating. A guy looking to sell books hears this, looks to get comments from the teammates, and all of them say nothing. They don't say NO, he didn't cheat, they say nothing.
