- Why The British Open Host Still Excludes Women
- Per the chair of the sport's governing body around 30 golf courses in the UK restrict membership to a single gender and half of those courses are restricted to women-only. I suspect that the golf course attracting the attention here is actually probably less-restrictive than some of those women-only golf courses. According to the club, it "welcomes women to play either as visitors or guests year round" and the article also notes that "it has played host to many women’s tournaments, including the Curtis Cup."
