That's because we all know it's not her last major.

[Chilli Dipper]

It's her own fault for calling out Wie in the way she did. All that did was give Wie more attention.

Wie is not the story over here in England - Annika was till the golf got going and now the tournament is. Why is the American media so obsessed with celebrity that it can't keep its eye on the REAL ball? And I'm right with Annika, Sophie and the others on this. If Wie wants to make a career in golf, she should be trying to forge it on the LPGA Tour (nod to iacas - I am now aware), not carrying out the latest in her series of pointless stunts.

Michelle Wie sort of reminds me of the Ty Tryon of LPGA golf.

Annika should be given all of the attention. IMO

That is true of SOME of the media. In our local paper, the stories about Juli and the Women's British Open is #1 (after all, it is a Major and Annika's last one). Fred Funk and the US Senior Open is #2 (again, it is a Major for the Old Guys). Retief Goosen and the WGC is #3. The Nationwide Tour is #4. And last, is Michelle Wie and the Reno tournament. That newspaper has their priorities right, in my opinion.

As far as this weekend is concerned, they are both part of the past. Annika is 10 shots back, and Michelle will spend the weekend home instead of playing the last two rounds in Reno. Meantime, Juli continues to be the BIG STORY, and if Natalie can win, SHE will definitely be the BIG STORY ( she is only 3 shots back right now).

Michelle Wie has a lot of growing up to do before we can refer to her as, "the future".

Shes got every shot in the bag, but she still lacks the mental game.

[twomey7]

Wie needs to work on her mentality then get back to golf. She has all the talent in the world she just freaks herself out methinks.

Exactly. She is still immature and its almost like she feels a sense of entitlement.

Say what? It's because the media is more interested in a freak show in this case. Wie has a long way to go to be a part of any future in professional golf.
