Wie off to faster start...

Michelle Wie has birdied 3 of the first 7 holes to go 6 up against C D Hockersmith in the US Amateur Public Links. Yes, that's 6-up after 7 holes, with 3 birdies. You can see real-time scoring here of the match and here for the second round.

Again, it looks like another guy is going to never hear the end of it, if Wie can hold on.

Update: Wie won her match 6 and 5 and plays either Tyler Neal or Jim Renner this afternoon. Renner is currently 2 up through 15.

"Hang on"? Are you kidding me? How 'bout if Michelle doesn't crush this guy into oblivion.

5 up thru 6 now? Even though she's easily beating men and women -- just qualifying for a USGA championship is a victory - I'll bet that if she loses in the semis, some moronic commentator will still say "she should be playing girls her own age." Pleeeze...

Here's the question: If 15 yr old tiger plays 15 yr old Wie, who wins?

At 15 (almost 16) - it seems that Wie is closer to making a PGA cut than Tiger was. Think about this for a minute...
