I've been very recently introduced to her blog and I follow her on Twitter now. Seems to be very cool with a lot of insight on the pro tour. I think the pros dig her, by and large, and provide her great access as a result. She's not afraid to muck it around breaking some of the news on P Reed and then firmly standing with her sources. I've been impressed with the small sampling I've had to date. Curious if others are familiar or know a bit more about her than I.

I've always liked her.  I think she's a smart, attractive girl who has worked very hard to live up to the unrealistic expectations that were set for her by her parents when she was a young girl.

:doh: I wish I was witty enough to do that on purpose...Back on Topic, I had no idea who Stephanie Wei was until just now when I looked her up.

Perhaps a link would help the other forum members recognize who she is.

Haha, I didn't even catch that in your reply yesterday, I was going to ask you about the details of her childhood, funny. It's pronounced way, her blog is called Wei Under Par (kinda clever). Do you mean a link to her site? Not sure that's kosher. Or, a pic? She's pretty dang cute. I haven't quite figured out how to upload pics from my phone, but I'll work on it. Interesting that not many know of her, I suspect that may change over time, she is really pretty impressive.

I really like her work. She seems to be a good reporter, she knows golf (I believe she played in college), and she doesn't take crap from anybody. Not afraid to call out trolls when necessary, and that's included some of her PGA reporting "colleagues" at times.

Her unique putting style is one of kind. She’s a great spokesperson for Kia and she can play the game when she’s on. I think many people thought she was going to be one the greats – time will tell. Her folks put too much pressure on her.

Falls a little flat when the joke was sprung a few posts ahead, but nice try. ;-)

I don't follow her, I get all the up to date news from all my other Twitter follows, so it's basically just repetition of the same stuff.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Well, in that case, I guess I don’t have an opinion about this woman, yet. If you give me 30-45 minutes, I will check back after doing some research and give my opinion.

Her reporting is succinct, a little jejune, but readable for sports insights. I see she covered the Dufner thing or shall I say, Amanda’s things. She tells it like it is.


She's a good reporter. Better than most golf journalists. I like her stuff, but I sometimes disagree with her opinions.

I followed her twitter acct, and will occasionally go to her website/blog.

She is way better, at times, than other golf writers

I have been following her on Twitter for quite some time. She is a good writer and provides more behind the ropes information than most of the golf writers. She is funny and whimsical. She seems to have a good relationship with the golfers that like to party (I could be totally wrong about this.).

    • Day 172: mirror work for a while during SNF. Working on cleaning up the early backswing stuff. Definitely seeing the improvements I’m looking for. 
    • @jxdama: Same dumb schtick since joining. Yup. Also, it's a par-73.
    • Day 97 - 2025-01-05 Showed up to something that absolutely floored me, and then was busy right through to 9:00. So, I got 5:00 in at night, at home, before bed. My rib cage hurts from a cough (ha ha, but also, f***), and I think I have a mild ear infection in my right ear. Things are just f***ing great.
    • OMG Jerry Barber shot -20 back in 1960! Let's go back and time and bitch about how easy it is to play golf. My goodness, Calvin Pete shot a -21 in 1986! Wait a second, David Duval shot -26 back in 1999! Hold up, Ernie Els shot a -31 back in 2003!!!!  (all scores at The Sentry, it is a very easy golf course for PGA Tour players).  The concept that golf in the past is this protecting par or what not is just romanticized BS. Golfer's have been tearing apart golf courses for decades. Let's have a sense of perspective to base our opinions, ok?     
    • I wont  comment further except to say maybe we  can get a  -40 winner soon on these tests  of golf  skill     Hideki Matsuyama runs away with The Sentry, breaks scoring record to open new PGA Tour season Hideki Matsuyama picked up his 11th PGA career win on Sunday afternoon in Hawaii.
