Two African American women who allege that management at a Pennsylvania golf course mistreated them when they called police because they were playing too slow have now filed a lawsuit claiming racial and gender discrimination.
Myneca Ojo and Karen Crosby, two of the five women involved in the 2018 incident, filed the lawsuit on Monday against Brew Vino LLC, which owns Grandview Golf Course, as well as several employees involved. The lawsuit alleges that an owner told a member of their group that they weren't keeping pace and treated them differently than other players on the course, who the lawsuit says were Caucasian and male.
When another group arrived at tenth tee at the same time as them, the lawsuit states, the group told them to go ahead because they were taking a break. When the women started to play, Jordan Chronister, an employee at Grandview, came up to the women and told them they could not"cut people off," according to the lawsuit.
