You might want to look at this, listen to her how she disrespects the game throughout this video and then you maybe realize why there are people who dont think that

Wasn't the above tournament just a few months ago? Looks like she still has some maturing to do. I hope she does though, because the LPGA could use her in a star role.

 Sub 70 849 9* driver

:callaway:  Rogue 3 & 5 woods, Rogue X 4 & 5 hybrids

:tmade: SIM 2 6-gap irons

:cobra:  King snakebite grove wedges 52 & 58*

She is 20 years old for pete's sake and still has a lot of growing up to do. I know I made some very wise decisions from age 16 to 21. I'm glad nobody is holding me accountable for the things I said or did at that age!!

Hell, I'm 37 and probably still need to grow up in some ways.

2 wins. She didn't hang on last week. I'm surprised there wasn't more cheering and wise cracks in this thread when Tseng overtook her with the closing nine 30. That's the norm on golf message boards, a dependable handful of posters whose LPGA attention span and comments are relegated to rooting against Michelle Wie. It's quite hysterical. Every event they are a comfy 12-1 to 15-1 favorite, since those are the odds against Wie winning. Imagine the terror when it looks like it will go the other way.

If the rest of that was aimed at me - sorry - I passed over all but the Lexi reference. She's got game, but the others I've never of.

Anyway, I think her performance in the Solheim Cup was on my mind when I said 3. Yeah, 2 wins.

Mizuno MP600 driver, Cleveland '09 Launcher 3-wood, Callaway FTiz 18 degree hybrid, Cleveland TA1 3-9, Scratch SS8620 47, 53, 58, Cleveland Classic 2 mid-mallet, Bridgestone B330S, Sun Mountain four5.

It always reminds me of the pathetic characters in Las Vegas sportsbooks who are too broke to be in action but go out of their way to chuckle when someone else loses. They'll waltz over and say, "Too bad. BTW, I liked the other side."

Gee, I lived in Vegas for 5 years, and was known to frequent a few sports books. I never saw or overheard anything like what you are saying. Maybe you hung out at different casinos than me.

Anyway, you think Wie is pretty good, I guess.

No one's denying Wie has freakish ability. She's got huge talent. Sergio Garcia has freakish ability too...

I'll take Lexi Thompson over Michelle Wie any day. LOL.

    • Day 27 (7 Dec 25) - Got in a few swings with 9i and hard foam balls in backyard.  Setup weight fwd (rebuilt left foot really lets me feel the weight in a slightly painful way) - kept the backswing to around 9 o’clock focusing on contact and resulting divot pattern.  Like how the hard foam balls come off the face (almost like real balls in sound).  A good abbreviated session as I only able to hit about a dozen balls in the fading light. 
    • Day 117 12-7 A bit of chipping practice today. Full swing- hit some real balls to see where Im at. 
    • Not the part I was replying to: Handicaps did not go down much (like 0.14 on average IIRC?) when we went from 10/20*0.96 to 8/20. And a good chunk of that was from the +s.
    • I think he meant in the UK. The old system was completely different from the new one. 10/20 x 0.96 vs 8/20 would really only impact very low handicaps I think. The 0.96 serves to increase differentials for plus differentials, where 8/20 vs 10/20 works to lower differentials for all. I don't know many plus golfers who would be upset that their index got lower. A lot of really good players don't even really keep their handicaps up-to-date. They're much more interested in their WAGR rankings which get them entries to certain events.
    • Day 433 - 2025-12-07 Got some work in after Junior Elite before a night of sports (and the return of my wife!). Backswing work. Similar to what a lot of my juniors are doing.
