Reverse discrimination is still discrimination, but I don't think that women should be playing in the PGA. Or the NFL. Or at Augusta.

I think that there can be clubs that base their membership on exclusivity. I never saw any white students at the Black Student Union, and I didn't hear anyone bitching about it, either.

And in case you're wondering, I haven't watched the Mummers since they let women march.

Assuming golf is really a sport, I like to see folks compete at the highest level they can. My daughter beat 9 or 10 boys and a girl fencing last Sunday so I'd hate to see her competition limited... of course it will be if she continues to fence as an adult. At the college level maybe womens fencing is competitive enough? Men's fencing is getting killed by title 9 or football so that may be less competitive. I do believe that people have the right to descriminate in private enterprises even if it makes for a poorer product/service/competition. I'll feel free to organize a more competitive league. None of this makes much sense so I'm stopping now.
