I have no problem with Michelle Wie playing against the best men golfers. I do have a problem with her being given exemptions into several men’s events. Ok, ok, I know; she brings a lot of people to the golf course which the tournament sponsors love but isn’t it getting a bit overdone? She has yet to make a cut in a men’s tournament in five attempts. Suggestion to Michelle: You are a marvel at 16 but so far you can’t even win a ladies tournament. You want to play with the men? Go through the same qualifying process as they do and I will welcome you to the tour with open arms. Oh, by the way, whining isn’t going to help. Show me some scores.....

Hi Jim!
I haven't been following Miss Wie, but my only comment would be this--I remember the match between Billie Jean King and Bobby Riggs. This match came only after Ms. King had proven herself to be a champion. She had paid her dues. I would think that at 16 Miss Wie has quite a ways to go!
Best wishes!
