michelle: "at least not in last"

On a very windy day in Honolulu, which made for tough scoring, Michelle Wie shot 5 over par (a 75) at the Sony Open. She took comfort in not finishing last. She knows she will have to go low to make the cut today.

75 wasn’t a bad score, given the difficult conditions. To put things in perspective, Michelle is a 15-year old and in the 10th grade. Three time major champion Ernie Els is double her age, and he shot a 71 yesterday, only 4 strokes better. Michelle tied or did better than 24 male golfers, including the likes of Paul Casey, Fred Funk, Scott Simpson, Thomas Levet, Matt Gogel, Zach Johnson, John Rollins, and Len Mattiace. Not bad, for a high school student(not even considering she’s the only woman).
