Ray,
We have to have a wager about Wie and the Hall of Fame nomination. Papa Wie has stated that his daughter WILL only play golf for ten years and then move on to something else. This means that HE is planning on having Michelle retire when she is 26 years old. Hall of Fame?? don't think so.

Not So Cool,

You (and the rest of you) are all idiots. Michelle Wie will have a Hall of Fame career-full of last laughs.

John D.,
There are at least 20 Korean golfers that are better players than Bubbles. I think her parents are the ones that are pushing Stanford first over her golf career. Also, I do not think she will be happy with just a BA from Stanford and will continue on with her graduate studies. Perhaps the mindset of the Wie Camp is the fact that they have already made their millions from endorsements and they could give a rats ass if Bubbles played in another tournament. During the past six years Bubbles has only shot 65 three times and I would not consider that being a "golf phenom." I can not see her winning any tournament until she is at least 23 years old. Bubbles does not have it mentally nor has she ever figured out how to putt. History has proven that professional golfers that can not putt never make it during their career.

John D,
I am sure the organizers at Blackhawk are thrilled to hear that Bubbles is too tired to play in their tournament! Good grief, the girl IS 19 years old isn't she? When I was 19 I worked from 7:00 to 4:00, on the first tee by 4:45, then went to the local dance club and danced until 2:00 am. I did this five time a week for two years and Bubbles after 3 tournaments is too worn out to play at Blackhawk! I guess Nike did not read the fine print in her contract which stated that Stanford was priority ove golf.

AND...She is now 0 and 56. ZERO wins in 56 attempts.

Well, Bubbles once again averaged her 10 bogeys during a tournament, the only difference this time was the fact that it was only 54 holes. Shin once again lived up to her name as the "last round Queen" by shooting a 64 and then winning in a playoff. Bubbles shot a 73! I think it is time for the Stanford study hall...see you in 2010 Bubbles.

Bubbles hit 28% of the GIR and 43% of the fairways...this does not a LPGA Champion make!

This facade has been going on too long. I hope she wins something before I die!

The Punahou School graduate carded five birdies and four bogeys for her up-and-down round. She opened with three consecutive birdies before bogeying the par-4 fourth. She closed her round with a bogey at the 17th and a birdie at the last.

Wie hit only six of 14 fairways and a meager five greens in regulation, but needed just 26 putts. She averaged 265.5 yards off the tee.

The savior of the LPGA! The saga continues!
