Golfer Jan Stephenson's homophobic, racist remarks
Ladies Professional Golf Association (LGPA) player Jan Stephenson has asserted that Asian and lesbian players are hurting women's golf. In the November issue of Golf Magazine, Stephenson said "the Asians are killing our tour," and "society is more open now about gay relationships, but it does hurt the tour. It hurts with sponsors. But if you had two gorgeous girls who were gay, I don’t think that would hurt." Although she has apologized to the Asian community for her racist comments, she has yet to apologize to the many GLBT people and their families who were offended and demeaned by her words.
