			<description>I agree, michelle wie sells better than other golfers more to the fact the she&#039;s a very attractive girl. What&#039;s she got that everyone else hasn&#039;t? An 18 year old body that&#039;s what. She is an icon, perhaps a fitting role model for all the asian girls who want to grow up to be beautiful and famous. Just kournikova, sex sells.</description>

			<description>Hmmmm, all this fuss and I can only think of another young phenom...Anna K, the tennis poster-girl who captured the hearts and ummmm, other body parts of people everywhere. Here&#039;s how I think it&#039;ll play out... Michelle may or may not win a Major, but after a few years of monstrous endorsment contracts and photo ops, she&#039;ll lose interest in the game itself and wonder why she needs to win anything. After all she&#039;ll be set for life financially and will be courted by the next crop of boy celebs. She will end her career amid candid upskirt shots of her lining up a putt at a pro-am event and will simply fade into obscurity....</description>

			<description>Overrated...certainly.  While she has physical skills, the space between her ears continues to let her down.  Everyone talks about her &quot;length&quot; enabling her to challenge PGA Tour players.  Give the guys more credit than that!  The short game of the average PGA Tour player is far superior to that of the LPGA Tour player.  When was the last time you saw anyone on the LPGA Tour, I mean anyone including Anika, shape a shot like Tiger, Phil, ViJay, Ernie, Sergio, Retief, etc?  Her odds of just making the cut in a PGA Tour event are extremely slim....and she will NEVER, repeat NEVER, be able to win a PGA Tour event.  It just won&#039;t happen...even a fluke.   As a result, every time she accepts a sponsor&#039;s exemption into a PGA Tour tournament (so she can have a fun two days before missing the cut), she prevents one guy who earned his way onto the Tour from competing.  She should stop being selfish, keep her mouth shut, and concentrate on winning an LPGA Tour event.</description>

			<description>Wie is popular not for her golf, but because she is 16 and hot. Like Anna Kornikova and Maria Sharopova of tennis, men like looking at a 16 year old and having fantasies. I know I do. She has a great body and I would love to ram my cock into her.  </description>

			<description>Michelle Wie is overrated for several reasons:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1) Her top drive is 325 yards while most top drives of PGA players is 375-440. The world record is 515 yards by Mike Austin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/golf/pga/2005/stats/longestdrive/ &lt;br /&gt;
http://hypertextbook.com/facts/2004/CrystalCuevas.shtml&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2) People are putting a girl on male growth scale when they metnion her age. Women are full grown at 18 while men are full grown at 21.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3) She keeps getting compared to Tiger Woods, but Tiger Woods has won 3 US amateur tournaments as a teenager.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
4) She rarely performs under the cut line for more then one round. Her chances at Q-School are a longshot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
5) She could also be using steroids to keep up with the men&#039;s longer drives in order to make the cut or she is taking steroids out of desperation to make the cut on a PGA tour.</description>

			<description>You guys are all crazy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What&#039;s the big fuss about her ?  I am a femal lawyer so you can&#039;t accuse me of being a &#039;dirty old man&#039; and I am not even interested in golf.  So, you might wonder  then why I watch Michelle Wie.  It&#039;s because she looks good out there.  It makes a boring sports like golf so much more watchable by people like me.  I find her trendy dress sense which is typical to her generation so refreshing in golf which I had associated with nothing but grey men/women and green grass. That was until I found a striking looking girl who could also hit the ball.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After all it all about fun.  Loosen up guys !&lt;br /&gt;
P.S : I do believe she has that thing known as &#039;X factor&#039; or  &#039;star quality&#039; though.&lt;br /&gt;
