GOLF AND GENDER

THOMAS SCOTT,

THOMAS SCOTT,

Madam, - I refer to recent correspondence regarding the men-only policy of Portmarnock Golf club.

The club is discriminating on grounds of sex. However, there are many clubs in the Dublin area that would gladly welcome lady members. Unfortunately this is not good enough. Apparently these ladies wish to associate with the élite of Dublin society. They themselves are discriminating on grounds of class. Their own behaviour is not too dissimilar from the behaviour of the club they seek to condemn. - Yours, etc.,

THOMAS SCOTT,
