"she beat abe mariano"
Shes consistent--she beat total of one player--an amatuer- in her last 4 tourneys.
I'm liking her change of stratagey this year though--she is using the wrist as pre touney excuse rather than finding one after tourney.
Is the wrist real or hype--you be the judge--
She doesn't know what prob is with wrist - claims everyone tells her diff things--which tells me A: she has not seen Dr or B: they can't find anything.
Shes "says" it is sore yet goes to ledbetter for 2 weeks of hitting balls just prior to tourney?
Shes hit wayward drives on course and immediately rubs her wrist--yet they show her hitting 5 or 6 drives on range after tourney and she never flinches or holds wrist.
If I had her bucks and wrist was prob I sure as hell would see a dr--wouldn't hit balls non stop two weeks prior and sure as hell wouldn't be driving range immediately after rd when wrist "would be most tender"

HA HA. They were showing a couple of her drives, they were Horrible.
Earn your way onto the tour. She gets more exemptions than anyone. Heck win a LPGA event.
She looks like shes putting on some weight too!!

Agent,
Really don't have a beef with you, never said I could beat her, just making a statement. Apparently you have a thing for her playing on the tour. She needs to quit taking exemptions until she proves she can compete. Too many guys out there trying to make a living and she keeps making these poor pub. stunts. She is a good female golfer, period. Perhaps she should try to win a women's event and let the guys that are struggling and fighting to make a living do their thing.
By the way, I would not play her with six a side but would with the 13!

I am with Dawgball, just give me the chance and I will be there. I can hit 320 yard drives in to the creeks and in to the fans also and probably shoot in the upper 70s also, BUT I don't think that 20,000 extra people will show up to see me do it like she draws and THAT is why she is playing!
She needs to get David Bedwetter outta her fukking camp for one thing! Has that guy ever helped anyone?
He's far too technical, IMO........and that's just a mind fukk for that kid right now.
When she was 14, she plays in the first event and misses the cut by a stroke.....now, she can't fall out of a boat and hit water!

Anyone here of the guy about 5' 2" from Wie'sschool and one grade under her-- he qualified for U.S. open while she didn't and beat her by 7 shots yesterday-haven't heard of him--why? Younger-better--great story?--and true story.
Heard rumor after this week Wie camp might need sponsors to give co-exemption for both the rest of PGA events and be paired as Snow White and the Dwarf--to be able to maintain draw

I'm sure all of you guys would gladly turn down exemptions to play in all of these events. Especially if you had eight figures in endorsements to offset bad showings.
An overwhelming majority of these fields are filled based on merit. There are just a few spots allowed for sponsor's exemptions for people who can help benefit the sponsors... you know, the people who FUND these events and allow them to be put on? The sponsors are allowed to put whoever the hell they want in those spots. And if that person happens to be someone who can bring in a TON of fans and media attention... all the better for the sponsor. That's kinda the whole point of "sponsor's exemptions". When people stop paying money to come and watch Wie, I'm sure the exemptions will stop.

incorrect--most exemptions by sponsers are to help someone of their choice--
If it was to help sponsors benefit they had Rosie and Trump paired up.
With that being said I do agree its sponsors tourney and they have the right to invite Wie-Trump or Rosie if its their choice.
They certainly used one exemption well on the little fellow a grade below her in Wie's school--was born premature at 1lb + (now 5'1")and just turned 16 few days ago.Now thats what exemption are for--and before someone says he didn't earn it--it was his 1st exemption but not 1st pga event as he was only one from Hawaii to qualify for U.S. open last year.
I will give Wie a little credit -she did beat 2 players this week which is more than her previous 4 events combined--but I attribute surge to home course adv

Nobody is going to show up to watch Rosie and Trump play golf. They do, however, show up to watch a very good, young female golfer. Good enough to be on the PGA? She's proving that she is not.
As mentioned before, she will have to earn her way on once the crowds write her off. And this day seems to be coming sooner rather than later. She got her shot and has not lived up to they hype.
I have no problem with her being on there.
And for the people that say for that ONE guy that didn't get in because of her.... He needs to improve his game if he wants to cut it on the tour. Because when he does make it on the tour, he will actually be able to cash humongous checks for ONE AND ONLY ONE reason... the sponsor's money.

Somebody said she's putting on weight. Is it on the Booty? By the way, I'd rather watch her than Brett Quigly or Harrison Frazier. This Tour has become Tiger and the 200 dwarves so who cares if she gets an expansion?
This piece of shit needs to stick with playing with the women. She doesn't need to keep embarrassing herself, she is proving absolutely nothing
