Henrick Stenson: Playing Well is the Best Revenge

Golfer Henrick Stenson won the Tour Championship by three strokes. That achievement also earned him the FedEx Cup points championship. Combined winnings: over $11 million.

Some said Stenson needed the money. Much of his prior winnings had been invested with a former sponsor, Stanford Financial.  (For his massive Ponzi scheme, Sir Allen Stanford is serving a 110-year prison sentence.)

Know Anyone Who “Invested” With Sir Allen?

Via FT's Alphaville we learn that the FBI seeks individuals who placed wealth in CDs or other products offered by Sir Allen Stanford:

The Houston Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is seeking information from individuals who have invested in the Stanford Financial Group (SFG) or its affiliated companies-Stanford Capital Management, the Stanford Group Company, the Stanford International Bank, the Stanford Trust Company, or the Bank of Antigua. To facilitate information gathering, the FBI has established a dedicated investor email address Stanford.group@ic.fbi.gov, and an informational telephone line (713) 693-5699.
Sir Allen's clients have probably lost money. Over 1,000 of Sir Allen's employees have already lost their jobs.
