The Golf Blog: 15 Year Old Wie vs. 15 Year Old Tiger??

Thursday, July 14, 2005

As Chuck asked here, Wie vs. Tiger at the age of 15.

Straight up.

Who wins?

I would have to say Tiger, but I am not quite sure.

At 10:17 AM, allCarry said...: Gents, wrong question. Here's what we all should be asking: who will win the matchup between 21-year-old Michelle Wie and 35-year-old Tiger Woods when it happens in 6 years???????
At 1:01 PM, jasonW said...: 6 and 5 is a beatdown. Let's see what the next opponenet has to say in his pre-round interview. The last two outcomes have been pretty predictable based on these pre-round comments.
At 2:20 PM, Power Fade said...: Love the fact that the leader of the B.C. Open doesn't have a picture available on pgatour.com. About sums it up.
Well I was right about Duval vs. Jack. Duval can't compete against Wie, so he sure can't compete against Jack at his home course...even if he was 85, not 65.
Wie's opponent, Jim Renner, is down 2 after 8 holes. He was the 2005 champion in the NAIA National golf tournament, and his college, Johnson and Wales University, won the title. Hmmm...I wonder what is better experience, playing in clollege and amateur tournaments, or playing on the PGA Tour?
At 10:21 AM, Anonymous said...: I'd say Tiger, but maybe not by much. It was his late teens when Tiger learned to hit a variety of shots, and most importantly, distance control.

If Michelle makes the same improvement, she won't be playing the LPGA tour....
