Might just as well. She sure doesn't play golf well enough to spend full time at that.

Isn't this the wonder woman who was going to play in the men's division. So much for that prospect, cant win in the LPGA. This is the woman they were promoting as the next superstar I think she was scheduled to play in a men's tournament. Vijay was also scheduled to play and when a reporter asked him how he felt if he was to be paired up with Michelle. He simply said "I will withdraw". I have a lot of respect for Vijay, practice is very hard, was not a natural, and says what he feels.

It's really unfair to criticize Michelle Wie's golf game. People say she hasn't lived up to expectations, but I believe she is a superstar despite her mediocre golfing record as a pro. Who else has achieved the success she has achieved (as measured by endorsements and name recognition) while not winning regularly.

Vijay has a history of not playing with women.

Singh says he'll withdraw if paired with Sorenstam

Michelle is OK and good luck to her. Man Jerry West must have had that kid at a pretty ripe age. He was old when i was young and now i'm getting old and he is still old. One thing about Michelle, I think every time I see her: tall, athletic etc but man her mouth is so small. I wonder how she eats. That is one tiny mouth on her.

Which could be good for marriage

Women’s tour is dead, occasionally see it on golf channel and that’s it. South Korea’s have taken over.

Not true. Every tournament is broadcast on Golf Channel and all of the majors will be broadcast on National TV this year.

More American's won on the LPGA Tour in 2018 than Korean's.
