Ray,

We can agree to disagree about the negative/positive effects that playing the men's circuit has with Bubbles. Women are equal to men in some games where strength is not an issue, like pool. I do not know her name, but watching the ESPN2 pool tournaments, their is a blond brittish gal that just does not miss at 9-ball. I would think she is as good as anyone.

But in golf or tennis, power is an advantage. So when Bubbles is teeing off against the men on a 7,400 yard course, she is going to attempt to put the ball in orbit from the tee box. I believe that this damages her game. She is trying to do something she can't, and loses her technique in the process.

time will tell - I just love it how the Wie bots are claiming that anti-wees are eating crow because of this win. If she failed to win until 2020, the same folks would be saying the same thing.

Oh, Jim, I should mention one more thing. I never said I wanted a win from Bubbles. I always said she would win eventually, and I made clear that I believe she has the capacity to be a top LPGA player. The only thing I ever took issue with was Bubbles' insistence on playing with the men, her entitlement attitude and the ridiculous fawning of the Wiebots.

Although it seems you Wiebots are trying to revise history, do remember that you expected Bubbles to be dominating the women's tour and successfully competing with the men long before now. I simply pointed out that the expectations — those of Bubbles and of her acolytes — were completely unrealistic and would not come to fruition. And I was right, am right and will always be right for a very simple reason: You cannot change the past.

Get a life and stop worshiping a silly media creation.

Jim C,

Why do you assume that it was "politically correct" feminists who stopped Ochoa from competing on the PGA Tour? Did it ever occur to you that maybe she is a relatively sane lady who is satisfied to be a woman and who understands her place in the Universe?

I find this obsession with having women compete with men to be quite odd, and I think it could be suggestive of a psychological problem.

All hail The Queen of MCs, DQs, and WDs!

Who? Bu88les, aka Winless Princess, of course!

Hahaha!

As soon as Bu88les has not everything handed to her on a silver plate, she quits, citing a fake injury.

I wish Lorena had tried to play on the PGA when she waas at her peak--but political;y correct feminists don't want her to play against the men. Notice how they got to Annika so she only played once.

Actually I consider Wie's five straight stroke play events in 2006 where she finished within two shots of the lead every time to be a greater achievement than one win this year. But her critics wanted a win, and now she has gotten it.

Judge Smails,

Well, Jim C, Wiebot numero uno, has spoken.

Even though the object of his devotion has finally won an LPGA tournament, albeit a no-cut, invitational with a sparse field of thirty-six golfers, only thirty-five of whom completed the four rounds, he has firmly stated that her first victory on the LPGA tour pales in comparison to her missed cut at the 2004 Sony. And who would know more of Bubbles' accomplishments than Jim C?

So it appears that until and unless she or some other female makes a cut on the PGA tour, Bubbles has achieved the ultimate in Golfdom. Bubbles, in the learned opinion of no less a Wie-wee than Jim C, has reached the Holy Grail, has climbed the Mount Everest in her chosen pastime.

Nothing achieved by Annika Sorenstam, Kathy Whitworth, or Patty Berg comes close to Bubbles' historic missed cut at the 2004 Sony.
And Lorena Ochoa is a mere blip on the radar screen of life. I mean, what has this low-brow Hispanic ever done that compares to missing a cut on Oahu?

With no more fields to conquer, Bubbles should be installed immediately in the Hall of Fame, since her remarkable missed cut on the PGA tour will never be equalled, unless, of course, she tries again and makes a cut on the PGA tour. If that ever happens, she should be added to the sculptures on Mount Rushmore.

I think that contribution by manynames was absolutely hilarious. A conspiracy inside the LPGA to make sure that Wie would win to enhance their marketing efforts. Perhaps Michael Wahn is just thinking outside the box ahead of schedule. Although, if he really had marketing efforts in mind, he could've easily jacked-up the "five points of celebrity" methods introduced by previous commissioner Ty Votaw, and had Wie strip down to a bikini and roll around in the sand with the trophy after her win.

Just do it. Nike.

And I suppose we're all in for her giving the men's tour another go--which of course is completely justified when she's bound to miss the cut another 5 times--but I really hope she buckles down and keeps working on her game. It would be more inspiring in my mind for her to dominate the LPGA and try to amass a longer list of victories, ultimately reaching the top someday.
