Default Re: New Article on Michelle Wie

-last Thursday - 203 yd bunkered Par 3 into gusty wind
The other women are hitting hybrids and 7woods and it's a crap shoot 'cause of the wind. I'm standing 5 yards behind the tee shots.
Wie pulls out an iron(4?), takes a divot(!), and hits a low stinger RIGHT at the hole - 10feet away - awesome.
A few holes later 325 drive down the middle.
Some bad tee shots and poor putting, though.

-She's only 17 gang.

-She just missed PGA cuts when she was 15 and 16.

-She probably broke her wrist earlier this year.

-There's no doubt she's had some bad direction in the past.
She should have won a dozen junior tournies to give her the feel.

-Maybe Stanford is what she needs.
Putting(so important), motivation, consistancy, good coaching, some confidence and watch out.
She COULD do it.

-There were 2 big crowds on Thursday afternoon.
Wie and the amazing Ochoa.

-If Wei was doing well and contending on the weekend I'd have followed her both days.

-She's 17 years old...
