“I wore something that I knew I wouldn’t get in trouble with. It had a collar; I zipped the zipper up.” The golf club Spiranac visited didn’t have any dress code mentioned online. Hence, she chose to dress moderately for not to get into trouble.

Yet, a woman complained to the staff as she thought it was inappropriate for the place. The traditional women’s golf attire includes a collared shirt, non-denim pants, shorts, or skirts. Since some clubs still follow this rule, Spiranac always looks up the dress code before visiting a new club.

Spiranac explained the staff didn’t mind her dress and asked the woman not to talk to her about it. Still, she went to her after the game in the parking space and said, “You (Spiranac) need to hear this woman to woman. You look cute, but that’s highly inappropriate.”

Furthermore, Spiranac explained that what the woman thought was a woman-to-woman talk felt like a verbal assault. The woman was just being “such an a**hole.”
