The Associated Press reports:

For the first time in its 80-year history, Augusta National Golf Club has female members.

 

The home of the Masters, under increasing criticism the last decade because of its all-male membership, invited former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and South Carolina financier Darla Moore to become the first women in green jackets when the club opens for a new season in October.
