Tim McDonald: Michelle Wie sellouts back in action

People are falling all over themselves again to get the brand name Michelle Wie in their golf tournaments.

The LPGA Safeway International changed the date of the event, after holding discussions with B.J., Michelle's father.

"Coincidentally, our new date just happens to be the same week that Michelle has spring break," the guy who runs the tournament, Tom Maletis, told the East Valley Tribune.

Yeah, what a coincidence.

And the Sony Open people have given her another sponsor's exemption. This will be her chance to go 0 for 4 at making the cut at the Sony and 0 for 6 on the PGA Tour. She's 1 for 11 in making the cut at men's event, her lone successful attempt coming at an Asian Tour event in Korea.

Oh, I forgot to mention she's also 0 for lifetime on the LPGA.

And, the game of golf is batting zero when it comes to integrity.
