During a Kleiner Perkins CEO weekend at Pebble Beach, a non-golfer was pressured into playing and subsequently received a mock award for the "most strokes ever." The recipient joked that they couldn't play golf due to Tourette's syndrome. The incident is remembered as a moment of public humiliation by Silicon Valley elites.

Federal investigators granted immunity to Trump Organization bookkeeper Allen Weisselberg to understand the company's financial flows. The discussion compares high-end real estate practices to Yakuza-run golf courses in Japan, where exorbitant membership fees are used as a form of tribute or money laundering. Analysts suggest that investigators like Robert Mueller are scrutinizing Trump's international deals for similar patterns of illicit finance.
