Apparently, these women have decided that, in protest, they will attend the tournament but they will be wearing burkas.
OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!!
As if the two situations are even REMOTELY comparable.

These women need to get a clue. Afghan women suffered and still do suffer to a lesser degree...absolute, utter, and complete imprisonment. To try and draw a comparison to not being allowed to join a private club shows just how out of touch these women really are.

And just to be clear, I'm not picking on Draggie at all. I do have serious disagreements with Martha Burke and company.
