First off, I am not surprised there are still segregated Golf Clubs. I wonder how many minority golfers are members of this club?
I am little surprised they came out so strongly in the fact they are not going to bend the rules for Bruce, now Caitlyn Jenner. That is a backlash they surely do not want, but what they are probably going to get thanks to this TMZ article.
Bruce Jenner became a member of Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, CA 15 years ago. He golfed there almost every day and established close relationships with his golfing buddies, including Wayne Gretzky. It’s a very exclusive, ritzy club with an initiation cost set at $225,000.
But now that Bruce is Caitlyn, there’s a new set of rules that segregates her from the male members.
For starters, the main dining room and bar are male only. They’re actually attached to the men’s locker room and women are not allowed. The women’s restaurant is way more scaled down … in other words, not nearly as nice.
Our Sherwood sources say the board will enforce the rules, which means the camaraderie Bruce shared with the other members will be greatly impeded now that she’s Caitlyn.
The Golf Club says Caitlyn can appeal (yes the golf club thinks they are the NFL) if she still wants to hang in the men’s only areas of the club.
