truth on hold Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) LPGA salvaged US Open at Pinehurst this year, men's tournie there 2 weeks ago was incredibly boring. Edited June 23, 2014 by Joe_the_6_pack
Gugny Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 She is one of the best looking women on the planet. Wow.

I'm thinking to myself, you media types are the ones creating all of this so called pressure. Inundating her constantly with questions, cameras, microphones, etc. And Wie? I think she turned out to be a pretty darn good person and golfer from what I've seen (even if she hasn't completely lived up to the hype as of yet). Regardless, she seemed pretty comfortable in front of the media, was happy and smiling the entire time, and seemed to really enjoy herself. Any kid who enjoys golf would be in absolute heaven to play beside the professionals that they look up to so much. And she did pretty damn good too for an 11 year old. Edited June 23, 2014 by Mark80
eball Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I flipped this on accidentally yesterday afternoon and was immediately awe-struck by Wie's looks. She has grown up nicely. I just hadn't paid much attention to her since that debacle 10 years ago when, as a 14-year-old, she played in a men's PGA event. Good for her, getting herself together and starting to realize that amazing potential. She's only 24; there could be many more majors in her future (and hopefully some unsanctioned videos).
The Poojer Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 more importantly...thank you Michelle Wie for the purple shorts you wore!
Southern McButterpants. Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 What was the "thing" she wore on only one leg?
The Poojer Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 whatever it is, you can bet that country clubs across this land are going to be filled with members wearing the same thing.....golfers are a lemming like bunch, seemingly more so than most On 6/23/2014 at 4:12 PM, Philly McButterpants said: What was the "thing" she wore on only one leg?

JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 She does have one of the oddest putting stances I've ever seen. I like it tho . She's been playing great this season and it was only a matter of time.
JoeF Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 This thread is reminding me of a certain scene from Caddyshack....
boyst Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I saw her in person once at the Jaime Farr Classic. She is tiny.
Southern McButterpants. Posted June 24, 2014 Posted June 24, 2014 I never knew what twerking was . . . Jeez I'm old.
