R&A votes in women as members

The Royal and Ancient Golf Club at St. Andrews is no longer just for men.

The R&A became the latest golf club to end years of male-only exclusivity on Thursday when its members voted overwhelmingly in favor of inviting women. The vote was effective immediately.

"I can confirm that The Royal & Ancient Golf of St. Andrews is now a mixed membership club," R&A secretary Peter Dawson said in a statement.

Dawson said more than three-quarters of the club's 2,500 members worldwide voted, with 85 percent in favor. It was the first time in the R&A's 260-year history that members were allowed to vote by proxy at the annual business meeting.

The members also voted to fast-track a "significant" number of women to join in the next few months. The R&A did not say how many women would be invited, although previous reports indicated it could be as many as 15 ...

Citing results of a "continuing investigation" into an incident Tuesday, Florida State has suspended quarterback Jameis Winston for Saturday's entire game against Clemson, the school announced late Friday night.

I'm not worried about FSU's ranking.

If we beat Notre Dame next weekend we'll be back on top. If we lose to Notre Dame we'll fall to 3 or 4.

#5 Notre Dame at #2 Florida State

Advertised kickoff time: 8:00 pm
Actual kickoff time: 8:24

And they do this every week.

What a finish.

#5 Notre Dame 27
