The winner of a golf competition has been denied the trophy because she is a girl, according to a local media report.16-year-old Emily Nash, from Massachusetts, finished first in a regional tournament this week and was also denied the opportunity to play at the state high school golf championships because she is female.

Her score only went towards her team’s total.Despite the fact she was denied the trophy, she told the local paper that she was pleased with her performance, considering the blustery conditions.“The wind didn’t bother me that much,” she said. “You’re striking the ball no matter what the wind is.”She said that she was especially proud of her 20-foot [url=http://www.authentictigershop.com/authentic-23-kirk-gibson-jersey.html]http... birdie putt on the par-3 13th [url=http://www.officialarizonacoyotes.com/Adidas-Tobias-Rieder-Jersey]Womens Tobias Rieder Jersey

Ms Nash proudly told the paper: "I golf every day".“I was definitely disappointed, but I understand that there are rules in place,” she said.“I don’t think people expected for this to happen, so they didn’t [url=http://www.authenticcanucksshop.com/authentic-8-christopher-tanev-jersey.ht... really know how to react to it. None of us are mad at the MIAA or anything like that, but I was definitely a little bit disappointed.”
Ireland's Seamus Power is two shots off the pace after day one of the Sanderson Farms Championship after carding a four-under round of 68.The 30-year-old from Waterford is hoping to take advantage of a weakened field in Mississippi as he looks to continue the streak of first-time winners in the tournament.With the top 50 in the world eligible to compete in the WGC-HSBC Champions in China, the top ranking player in the field is world number 75 William McGirt, who sits tied for 32nd at two under.
Power, who represented Ireland at the Rio Olympics, only dropped a single shot - on the 15th - and holed three birdies on the front nine to put himself in the mix.Five Americans lead the field after scoring 66 on the first round - Ryan Armour, Andrew Landry, Conrad Shindler, J.J Spaun and Wyndham Clark - with 23-year-old Clark hitting five birdies in row on the back nine to put himself in contention.
Four players from the States sit tied for sixth at five under, while the top placed British interest is David Skinns, who went round in 70, with birdies on the 11th, 14th and 17th, but stopping a shot on the 12th.
