Michelle Wie Plays Golf With Clinton
Monday, October 31st, 2005Michelle Wie got to play a round of golf with former President Clinton recently. The cost? Only $500,000. Not directly to Bill but to the Hurricane Relief fund. After signing for her $10,000,000 with Nike, Michelle promised she would donate some dough to the fund. Very cool indeed.
Wie presented a check to the charitable foundation created by Clinton and fellow ex-president George Bush Sr. “I just saw clips of” the devastation, she said. “And I really wanted to help out. I really do hope it helps a lot of people…. Compared to all the disaster, it’s such a small amount of money.”
Clinton praised the Korean-American golf prodigy, saying it was not only an extraordinary experience to play with Wie on the course, but that she left a great impression off the course as well. Wie returned the compliment saying her meeting with Clinton was “a great moment.”
A “great moment”? Hmmmmm… you’ve got to wonder if the Monica Lewinsky scandal ever crossed her mind during the round. He He….And I wonder if she let him win???
