Michelle Attempts U.S. Open Qualifier on Monday
Friday, June 2nd, 2006Monday is the day that Michelle Wie will play a 36 hole section qualifier for this year’s men’s U.S. Open. Can she do it? Her instructor, David Leadbetter thinks so and chances are she will. She only has to make the top 18 out of 153 players. If she does qualify to play in the tournament, she’ll need every ounce of talent she has to score well on the brutal Winged Foot course. Even the top men’s pros have nightmares about that course. It can turn a world class golfer into putty. Fairways are like landing strips, and the rough is brutal. Good luck to Michelle on Monday!
