truly nice to look at. by the way she will never do a damn thing in the PGA events that she plays in. Sorry Michelle, but its true!

Re: A Cruel Cut For Wei

Yea you are right...I'd like to see her go dominate the LPGA.

...this act has tired. don't get me wrong, the girl (and at 16 she is a [I]girl[/I]) has mad game but just stick to the women's side of things, refine your game, win some tournaments and then come back in a few years to try again.

^Agreed. But I wonder how much her sponsors are pushing in the wrong direction?

nice point man. her team of advisors etc. are probably pushing this as well as the pga folks as well.

just another shameless marketing gimmick :roll:

Yup...whatever brings in the dollars. And she obviously does.

Um, so pics of her in a bikini would bring some dollars...

Re: A Cruel Cut For Wei

at 16, they might bring some lawsuits as well...

i bet she would prefer to play the women's... she'd make a better statement by winning tournaments, not by missing cuts in tournaments you don't belong in. I just don't see the point when she will NEVER win a men's tournament.

^^I agree with you Garrick. But I think it has to do with eyeballs glued to the tube. And she draws them.

Re: A Cruel Cut For Wei

she needs to stick playing against women. She has not proven herself. You don't see Anika playing against the men.

I am just glad there are better looking women in golf

Re: A Cruel Cut For Wei

  1. go win at the LPGA. then come here
  2. stop being a marketing tool, you suck on this level.
  3. it will be interesting next year at the hawaian open, which, upon winning, yeilds a pass to augusta. augusta wont even let women on the course outside of spectators for the OPEN. they have the right to ban her as they are a privately owned and operated club, but wait until she sues. she nearly won the Hawaii open this year, and woody johnson said he would revoke the invitation.

Re: A Cruel Cut For Wei

I believe Woody Johnson said if she qualifies she can play...but my memory is getting poorer with age.

Re: A Cruel Cut For Wei

nah, he said, DIRECTLY to martha bruke's(i think its her name) face no less, that a woman will not play until the members vote them in. and he wont ever release the names of the membership roster as long as he is president of the club. good for him. we have to protect private groups from people. my favorite was when the guy from the tour said that if wei or sorenstam play on the mens tour again, he will go out and qualify for a womans tour simply to prove the point that either everyone can implement restrictions or no one can. tough having a lawyer on the tour.
