Do You Want to Buy These Ping Golf Clubs?
The reporter, the Record sports columnist Tara Sullivan, was attempting to interview the third-round leader Rory McIlroy in the locker room along with a group of male reporters but was stopped by security guards who told her she could not enter because she was a woman.
The club, which has no female members, apologized to Sullivan and called it a misunderstanding, adding that golf clubs for sale was not club policy to deny locker room access to female reporters. Several female reporters at the tournament had access throughout the week.
Sullivan said she was not stopped by club members but by two security guards, one male and one female, who were contracted by the club to work during the tournament. Sullivan was later given a transcript of McIlroy's comments by her male colleagues.

It's for: Max game-improvement players
ping K15 irons enable you to customize sticks for optimum performance. Construct your own set makeup from a choice of nine irons (5-iron through lob wedge) and four hybrids (3h to 6h). Perimeter-weighted, multi-material irons (stainless steel body and lightweight titanium clubface) have loads of perimeter weighting to boost ball flight, and forgiveness. The hybrids are crafted to produce high-launch, low-spin shots through increased MOI and 'optimal' CG position.
From Sports Illustrated Golf+ (February 7, 2011)
A multimetal iron design combines a large, lightweight titanium face with a 17-4 stainless-steel body to increase forgiveness and improve launch conditions. Weight saved from the titanium face is allocated to the sole and perimeter to achieve more accuracy and higher ball flights. The ping K15 hybrid is available in 3H, 4H, 5H and 6H. They rely on an extremely high moment of inertia and a patent-pending feature that creates lower-spinning, higher-launching shots that fly longer and straighter.
Besides, it allows you to pptimize your set to improve your ball flight, and build consistency in your game. This hybrid replaces harder-to-hit long irons, and relies on a patent-pending design that creates lower-spinning, higher-launching shots that fly straighter and longer. A large internal weight pad in the hybrid produces a high MOI for added forgiveness. The hybrid's offset hosel and face relationship increases launch and lowers spin.
The greatest thing I've got going for me is my ability to believe in other people's talents. I can see people doing things they can't see themselves doing.
