Wie gets more press…
Well I too was watching the LPGA Tournament on NBC today, but unfortunately, the coverage stopped at 4pm and the tournament was no where to be found on TV. Maybe I missed where the TV coverage was going, but I could not find it.
Anyways, I am not one who is a big Wie fan, like my fellow golfbloggers Douglas and Mulligan and even more so AllCarry. Personally, I think that she is going to be a huge failure for Nike and Sony and will always have people gunning for her. Also, she does not know how to win, so it might take her 5-10 years before she learns how to win and dominate like Tiger or Annika. Finally, I think that Michelle will slowly burn herself out. She is working too hard, and if she does not reach the pinnacle of her game soon, I question whether she’ll be able to continue without losing interest at some point. I think Paula, Annika, and Christie are going to lead the LPGA Tour until Morgan Pressel comes up from the ranks.
My last point that I’d like to make. I am an avid baseball fan and I was sick watching the end of Game 2 of the ALCS. For those of you who did not watch the end of the game, the umpire gave a strike 3 call against AJ Pierzynski, who swung and missed, but the catcher dropped the ball. Most of the players on the Angels believed that the motion of the umpire, including the Angels catcher, who did not tag Pierzynski out. Luckily in golf, you can go back and make things right. Here, Wie broke the rules and she should be disqualified.
