Commentator Hank Haney, who belittled South Korean golfers in the LPGA, must be fired for his racist, sexist remarks | Opinion
CLOSECONNECTTWEETLINKEDINCOMMENTEMAILMOREGolf instructor and commentator Hank Haney was having a great old time on his SiriusXM radio show Wednesday morning, ripping women’s golf, the game’s magnificent South Korean standouts and this week’s U.S. Women’s Open, the crown jewel of the women’s game.
If there’s any golf club in the country that allows Haney to set foot on its property after that despicable exchange, that club is telling every girl and woman and person of color to go play any one of the dozens of other sports they can play for life, not golf. These days, almost every initiative announced by the PGA of America, the U.S. Golf Association and Augusta National mentions girls and women. The way things are going, if you’ve got an athletic girl in your household playing volleyball, basketball or soccer, a USGA official might show up at your door to personally drive her to the range for her first golf lesson.
Where is the PGA of America's comment condemning Haney? Augusta National’s? The PGA Tour's, since it's their show?MAJOR PRIZE: U.S. Women's Open champion will earn $1 million for the first time
