Golfer sues Royal Mid-Surrey Golf Club for £37,000 over alleged racial discrimination after expulsion for cheating claims

Rina Rohilla is suing the Royal Mid-Surrey Golf Club for over £37,000, claiming racial discrimination after her membership was terminated in 2019. She was accused of cheating by altering her scorecard during a tournament, which she denies. The club, which has royal status, argues that her expulsion was due to cheating, not racial bias. Rohilla claims the investigation was influenced by personal dislike and unconscious bias related to her ethnicity, stating that she was seen as an outsider. The court case is ongoing, with both sides presenting their arguments. Rohilla's lawyer contends that the club's decision was unfair and motivated by prejudice, while the club maintains that the expulsion was justified based on evidence of cheating.
