Last week was filled with 18-hour days for Glen Nager. But he wasn't complaining. After all, the reason he was so busy was that the annual U.S. Open Championship golf tournament, was under way in suburban Philadelphia. (Justin Rose wound up the winner.)
As The Am Law Daily has previously reported, Nager—who chairs Jones Day’s issues and appeals practice—was elected to a one-year term as U.S. Golf Association president last year. Earlier this year, the 15-member executive committee that oversees the USGA extended Nager's stint at the top by electing him to a second one-year term that is scheduled to end in February 2014. “Not bad for a guy who didn’t start playing until his thirties,” jokes the man who lays claim to an 8 handicap. (The executive committee also tapped retired Latham & Watkins partner Ernest Getto, now a managing director of litigation finance firm Burford Capital, to succeed retired Latham vice-chairman and chief operating partner Mark Newell as USGA general counsel; Newell, meanwhile, took a seat on the executive committee.)
