Several LPGA stars have added their voices to the chorus commending Augusta National's decision to allow women members for the first time in it's 80-year history.
Wie: Would love to play at Augusta
It was announced on Monday that former US secretary of state Condoleezza Rice and South Carolina businesswoman Darla Moore accepted their invitations to become members of the storied club.
World No 1 Yani Tseng hailed the decision, adding that she hopes to play there herself some day.
"I just feel very happy that they finally have let ladies be members," said Tseng. "I'm looking forward to going and playing there if I can. I've never played there so I think it's very interesting."
Michelle Wie echoed Tseng's words, and also hopes to one day compete at Augusta.
"I think it's great that they're allowing female members now," Wie said. "I think that's very cool. I would love to play the golf course one time.
"Playing in a Masters has always been a dream of mine. You've got to dream big. You never know. But it will always be a dream of mine."
Wie added that she has played golf with Rice.
"I played a round of golf with her when she was in Hawaii by accident, so it was really nice catching up with her," she said. "It was really nice seeing her and just being able to talk to her was awesome."
Brittany Lincicome says the decision is a significant one from more than just a golfing perspective.
"It's great, not only for women's golf - it shows how much the world is changing and evolving," she said. "It doesn't matter if you're the CEO of another company. It empowers women.
"It's not a man's world as much anymore. It doesn't have to be about golf. It can be whatever job you do. It's really cool to see that it's in my era, that I was a part of this. I think it's amazing. I think it's awesome."
She added: "I've never played Augusta, so if any of those nice ladies want to invite me out to play, that would be amazing."
