Personally, I root for Michelle Wie, it is unfair because Nike and her family have put a lot of pressure on her to succeed, and that is unfortunate at such a young age. But she cashes the enormous checks as well, which does subject her to criticism by the masses. |
Excellent points, and your mention of her being subject to criticism-like all other pros, especially given the money she gets-jogs my memory of a prime example of somebody in agreement with us "pathetic" he-men: Annika Sorenstam, whose accomplishments as a player are beyond reproach, and who is, as far as I am aware, not prone to rash statements or undue criticism of other players. As a matter of fact, I seem to remember her showing a lot of class and restraint when some of the top male players made some snappy comments about HER being allowed to play with men. Yet, she felt compellled to question the extent of Wie's injury and her motives after her FIRST pullout a short time ago, so
please don't act like we're just a bunch of know nothings with no perspective on what we're watching...
