French golfer Jean Van de Velde will attempt to enter next year's Women's British Open because he is upset women may qualify for the 2006 British Open.

[...]

Recent policy set by the Royal and Ancient Golf Club will allow women to qualify for next year's British Open.

``My whole point is where do we draw the line?'' Van de Velde asked after shooting a 7-over-par 78 Thursday in the first round of the Volvo Masters. ``If we accept that women can enter our tournaments, then it applies that men can play with women.''

[...]

The event is run by the Ladies' Golf Union, which established a gender policy this year that says: ``It shall be a condition of any competition organized by the Ladies' Golf Union that players must be of the female gender.''
 
Either let him or do away with segregated golf entirely I say. You shouldnt have it both ways.....
 
It's about time a man try this reverse discrimination stuff.
Go forth men invade all women sports.
I just want to be a news caster in the women locker room.
