    Come on. This is insanity. The tournment was specificially for men, and she wasn’t a man. If they had a father daughter tournament could I sue since I am a son, not a daughter? Get a life. And to equate some woman at a country club not getting to play in a tournament to the segregation blacks felt at best insane at worst insensitive.

    The genders need their own places to be. Women have long battered at the doors of the places men go to be with men, yet raise bloody hell if we even think about going where the women congregate. (Remember the girl who sued to get into a Boy Scout camp? What if a boy tried to get into a Girl Scout camp?)

    Leave us alone! Let us have our men-only places and you go to your women-only places. There are plenty of places the sexes can mingle.

    Typical gender BS. I’m sure there are women only events, and probably a womens member-member event. I’ll even bet there are some tournaments for mixed genders, but she now wants to play in the men only events. Grow up. If she insists, let her play……from the same tees and under the same rules as the men…..you want equal, you got it. Of course, say goodbye to that event.

    This country has gone downhill ever since women were given the vote.

    She was banned from the tournament? I recommend that Ms. Joyce do a little more research into the reasons for this ban. (My guess is that her father whispered to the club pro “Find a reason to keep her out of this event. I want to win, and I certainly won’t be able to do that with a partner that’s going to shoot a 134”)!!

    If she was a member at the club, she should have been allowed to play, no questions asked.
