geez... the LPGA could learn a thing or too from the PGAtour's simple website interface. Can't find a video of Michelle Wie anywhere.. there's too much bullshit.

Good on here though.

Damn, i think they removed the makeup tips from the entertainment section - so much has changed since they booted Bivens :). But yeah - even in 2000 the LPGA site would have been regarded as outdated.

When you open up the leaderboard they have this notice: "If you are experiencing problems with the leaderboard, there is an alternate version with lesser functionality." Are you sure it´s even possible to have lesser functionality than you already have.....

She swings like a guy. Her smash factor is absolutely outstanding. I love the sound when she hits driver.

I think the reason she hasn't won more is a simply a lack of maturity. But, she's growing up so we'll see what happens.

I can´t see how anyone could be rooting for a blatantly arrogant, spoilt, unintelligent cheater like Michelle Wie. It´s beyond me.

And seriously, a 6200 yard course with flat greens and no rough doesn´t really make for great Television.

Golf is a game in which the ball always lies poorly and the player always lies well.

Considering the women hit the ball around 20% shorter than the men, it makes sense that the courses are also 20% shorter. No rough and flat greens are not as fun though.

How can you not be long when you are as tall as her compared to all the other women out there. @LongballGer - i really agree with you there, but it shows you just how little there is to root for on the LPGA.

This is NOT a flattering picture for anyone in it...

Women should play golf barefeet, and all the bunkers should be filled with grass.

They should play in bikini - but of course only for a scientific purpose , so that we can study which muscles move the golf swing......... This of course would only apply for women whos muscles are actually visible and not hidden away under 15 layers of (you know what).

Now that football is back I agree with your second sentence.

As far as the cheating are you referring to the La Costa event?

There is a difference between breaking the rules and cheating. Thos LPGA players from a few weeks ago cheated. Dustin Johnson, Jim Furyk, and Wie (if I understand the situation correctly) broke the rules.

There are so many incidents with her - e.g this one:

look closley at 0:15 - her domment " I guess I knew the rule wrong , from what I always knew... if you swing through it, everything would be OK." Then the one at the KIA classic, she forgot to sign her Scorecard and got DQed in 2008, she got DQed in her Pro Debut in 2005 for an improper drop - somebody might add more to this list... One more - when she was close to shooting 88 and withdrew due to "injury" just to be spotted 2days later practicing. Not only this, but during the round she seemed to have taken advice from her father - which is a rule violation...

kafka, none of those qualify as "cheating," and it's not taking "advice" if someone tells you to withdraw.
