One of the three clubs on the British Open rota with a male-only membership policy has voted to allow female members for the first time. Royal St. George's, which last hosted golf's oldest major in 2011, said on Wednesday more than 81 percent of the club's full members took part in a ballot, and 90 percent voted in favor of women being eligible for membership. ''It is extremely good news going forward,'' Tim Checketts, club secretary of Royal St. George's, told The Associated Press. Royal Troon and Muirfield are the other host clubs of the British Open to have male-only memberships.
