A Wie Ray of Hope

If you saw the LPGA tournament this weekend, you can were greatly surprised to see Michelle Wie shoot the nice spherical of the week (a bogey-unfastened 6-below 66) and finish T3. This turned into at the heels of a T12 end closing week.

This meant 6 of her last 7 rounds have been par or better. She's had 2 rounds of sixty six (the one ultimate week became 5-below) and her most effective over-par spherical (her 2d this week) became just 1-over. Given how tough the course became, that sincerely wasn't a terrible score either.

Michelle Wie

Even the commentators were commenting on how an awful lot more comfortable Michelle seemed over the ball -- nevertheless a chunk mechanical, however at the least she regarded to be playing herself.

Has Michelle finally grew to become a corner in her recreation? I do not know. I understand we often supply fundamental winners a "grace length" of a couple of years wherein we do not expect an entire lot -- we are saying they are "readjusting" to the brand new needs of being a major winner. As I've said before, I assume Michelle ought to get the equal advantage of the doubt because I think graduating from university and having your entire routine of the previous few years jerked away is as a minimum as demanding. Even a number of her critics like Brandel Chamblee seem to be coming around to that idea. (Perhaps the rumors of a probable defamation match by means of Tiger's agent has something to do with that. I don't know the exact timing of the two, but I suppose I heard Chamblee's greater lenient remarks approximately Wie earlier than the golfing.Com article got here out.)

At any price, Michelle has put herself lower back on the radar once more. If she keeps to show improvement -- and Michelle IS scheduled to play this week in Taiwan, possibly hoping to construct on her modern top play -- we might also locate ourselves speaking lots approximately Michelle Wie in 2014.

And irrespective of the way you sense approximately Michelle, it truly is good for women's golfing.
