Its not like she couldn’t play at all. She was not allowed to play in a MEN’S Tournament. If she went to play in an OPEN tournament and was turned away because she was a woman I could see that being an issue. If it is a MEN’S tournament doesn’t it stand to reason that only men can play in that particular tournament? She did not meet the guidelines, and therefore was not entitled to play. Who is to say the golf course didn’t regularly have Women’s tournaments? I feel a road trip on that day, followed by a windfall judgement because I was discriminated against! Boo hoo! Get over it. Makes me as mad as the idiot who sued the bar over ladies night….what a moron. See I hate idiots of all genders.
Wow, do I hope I am not picking up on some serious sarcasm in these posts. It was Member-Member. Not Man-Man. Have a Man-Man Tournament, ban girls from playing in it, and go back to your lives of being most likely inadequate role models for your daughters. That woman paid her member dues just like everybody else.
What makes a person want to do this?? If she wins and gets to play, does she think she will be made to feel welcome out on the course? Isn’t this supposed to be a fun day for all?? Is she just trying to prove something? So, in the end, when this event is cancelled in future years, will she take pride in knowing that she was responsible for destroying a harmless, annual tradition at this course?
It was a MEN’S TOURNAMENT genius. Which word do you not understand? This is a fine example of female reasoning: ignore reality, pretend what you want to believe is true, lie, and then act indignant.
Bring me a beer while you’re not doin nothin, will ya?
This was advertised as a member-member tournament, not a father-daughter nor male member – male member tournament. Aside from that the word GOLF came out of England from the phrase “Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden.”
A Cape Cod, Mass. woman is suing the town of Dennis and its two public golf courses after she wasn’t allowed to play in a men’s tournament with her father.
MEN’S Tournament, but then goes on to say member-member. If it was a men’s tournament, guess what? You have to be a man to play. Just like you have to be a woman to get into clubs for free on some nights. What is the big deal?
If you look at the website for the city’s courses, they had a ‘Women’s Member\Member’ tournament the week before the ‘Men’s Member\Member’ tournament. They had other similar opportunities for her to play in tournaments. It appears the lawsuit is for some other agenda.

I want my own drinking fountain so I don’t have to share it with idiots like this woman.
And we want you to have your own drinking fountain … why take a chance it’s not the water that makes you shortsighted…
“Mommy! Tell the boys to let me play!!! Waaaaaaaaah!!!”

The article is ambiguous at best.
