Title: Major Golf Watching

Some very good golf courses (Pine Needles, the Country Club, the Old Course & Muirfield) on TV over the next 6-8 weeks.

Really enjoying the pine needles coverage. The course is playing firm and fast. A wild variety of shots from off and around the greens have been hit since I turned it on.

So Rubinstein gets to rename the “Women’s Open” the “Women’s British Open”? Glad he has so much authority.

Of course. The Women's Open is on right now. At Pine Needles.

I am pretty sure the point that he was making is that he doesn't want to call it the "AIG Women's Open" as he doesn't like including sponsors' names in the name of major championships.
Here is what he wrote:  "The AIG Women’s Open — I prefer to call it the Women’s British Open"
