Michelle Wie Blog

This is a recent Nike commercial featuring Michelle Wie. This is undoubtedly running alot in Korea since text is in both English and Korean. You’ll notice that producers did not have Michelle say any words…Hmmmm, could it be they have been watching her interviews this past year? Tiger Woods gets some lines now and actually he is a not bad talking on camera. They are probably going to give Michelle some time yet to further develop her diction. You can see from this video how she can hit the ball 300 yards. Purely physics. (She does make it look easy though)

It’s official. Michelle Wie will attend Stanford University in the fall of 2007. The prestigious school in Palo Alto, CA was the same college that Tiger Woods attended, although he only lasted 2 years before turning pro. Michelle is already a pro, and banked a whopping $20 million dollars last year. It’s a little hard to imagine Michelle cramming for exams and worrying about getting that term paper in when her bank account already exceeds most people’s income for a lifetime. $100 bucks says she doesn’t last one year. The thought of doing what millions of other 18 year olds are doing come September sounds good in theory, but Michelle is not your typical teen. Hopefully her profs won’t grade her on attendance. If so, she is in trouble.
