I wish non pro golfers would get off how much integrity and honest people are that play golf. The Pros are the most honest and self policing, but I doubt is they never cheated sometime in a round. But the everyday day golfer has cheated sometime when they have played a round of golf. I use to play golf and I never played with anyone that at one time or another didn't break a rule. So get off your pedestals about how honest the game of golf is. It is no better than any other sport, you just to make it so because it orginated as a Gentleman's sport in England. If you check out history, more of them were dishonest than were honest.

More or less everything I've written over the last year or so has been inspired by your comments, Tommy.

And by "inspired" I mean "ripped off."

Michelle Wie's name should be changed to Michelle "Wienless". Enough of this circus. No more reasons and alibis. Just say that you are not qualified in the men's tour and play in the LPGA and hopefully you will not end dead last just like your score at the Omega Masters.

You really think you're a better golfer than Wie? What's your handycap? Have you even broken? 70? 80? 90? 100?

It used to have Integrity. Whoever at Nike OK'd 10 Million dollars must be praying for a miracle. They may not give her anymore exemptions. The LPGA tour is also PO'd at her for not wanting to join them. She may not even be on TV next year. She is choking big time.

Godi... he never said he was better than MW, just asked the question if one unqualified person can play PGA Tour events, why not him.

You do have nice hair, WKW. Rather not see you in a skirt taking your ball out of the cup, though--no need to see ALL your hair.

(BTW, who are these dopes who don't even read the blog before commenting? You listening Godi?)

As long as you are prepared to wear an extremely short skirt and very long, dangly earrings I can't see any problem. Strikes me the golf is largely irrelevent.

Patrick, You've taken some beautiful photographs. With regard to your blogs, my advice is "stick to photography."

We seem to be skirting the issue here (no pun intended), Michelle Wie is a sex symbol.

I know what you're thinking: You sicko, she's only 16!

Like it or not it true.

What an ass. This blog is pointless.
Wie is asked to play because she attracts an extra 25,000 spectators to the gate, you on the other hand would have the opposite effect.
The fact that she came last in Europe will have very little effect on her popularity.
Most people recognize the fact that she is still learning and will improve.
Should the person who comes last at a tournament automatically be banned from the PGA?
How bout Steve Bowditch? Last position this week. This year played 17, 1 cut, earnings $5640. Let's throw him out to make way for a more promising player. He has no right being on tour, and he's an Aussie.

Judge Smails, This is off topic, but I urge you and all other sensible folk to look in on Baldwin's blog entitled "Crazy 9-11 theories."Some of the stuff there is absolutely surreal.

Come on Alex
What about Bowditch. Does he deserve to remain on tour?

alan m, Thank you for asking my opinion. Steven Bowditch qualified for the PGA tour by a bona fide method. He and his agent knew in advance that if his play in the calendar year after he started on the PGA tour did not measure up to certain set standards, he would lose his tour card. Since his play thus far has been far below the PGA's set standards, barring a miracle, he will lose his PGA tour playing privileges. If he doesn't deserve to remain on the PGA tour, he won't remain on it. That is plain and simple. Now, alan, if you are making an equation between Bowditch's status on tour and that of Wie, no such equation exists. Michelle only appears in PGA events because of the largesse of certain tournament sponsors. She has no PGA tour card since she has never QUALIFIED. Steven Bowditch is marginal as a PGA pro at best, but the one cut he made in a PGA event is one more than Michelle Wie has made. Speaking of qualifying, journeyman pro Michael Allen has qualified about a dozen times. Even former Masters winners have had to qualify at times when their exempt status expired.

alan m, Pay attention to this comparison between the rounds played today By Michelle Wie and the much maligned Steve Bowditch. Michelle scored a pedestrian 77. She didn't play badly, the course was just too long for her game. She didn't put up any double bogeys or other big numbers. She had five bogeys but NO birdies. She did about as well as could have been expected. Conversely, Bowditch had two bogeys in his round and THREE horrendous double bogeys, And guess what? He scored a stroke LOWER than Miss Wie! 76!How did this happen? He also had four birdies. Although he is a marginal pro and will undoubtedly lose his PGA tour privileges at the end of this season, Bowditch has the game and the capability to score birdies on a long and demanding layout. Wie simply does not have that capability. Bear in mind, she did quite well in fairways hit today, and the lift, clean, and place rules were in effect, so therefore she nearly always had a good lie on her second shot. She simply didn't have the length off the tee. In tomorrow's round , she will probably need to shoot a 67 to make the cut. That's ten strokes better than she did today. I know that hope spings eternal for the Wie Warriors, but do you guys really believe that is possible? To do that, she would have to make at least five birdies, IF she didn't make a bogey. Miss Wie has the game for the women's tour. She's seems like a nice kid, but she is hopelessly out-classed as far as the PGA tour is concerned. If you can't see that, then I give up.
