Ice takes out Eisenhower Tree at Augusta
Dwight Eisenhower's wish was finally granted — 45 years after his death. A 65-foot tree named after the president on the 17th hole at Augusta National Golf Club was removed over the weekend after sustaining "irreparable damage" during an ice storm. Billy Payne, chairman of the private club in Georgia, said that the tree had lost most of its major branches and was unable to be saved.
