Whisper Rock–MEN ONLY, Troon CC. –large men’s grill room and Pinnacle Peak CC–men’s only grill.
I am sure the majority of the other private clubs in the Phx/Scottsdale area are quite archaic. Doesn’t bode well for my daughters as an example of the way some of the ol timers still think about women.

It’ll be interesting to see what happens in court.

http://www.bizjournals.com/phoenix/stories/2008/09/15/daily31.html says:

Although the country club, which has played a prominent role in the history of Phoenix and the business community, is a private club, the lawsuit contends that PCC promotes itself for public events and meetings and “derives significant income” from catering to outside groups. Thus, it is subject to anti-discrimination laws, according to the lawsuit.

…. Maybe then they can do something about Augusta National Golf Club, where the Masters Tournament is held every year, and where women still aren’t even allowed to be members
