LPGA Silent After Wie Makes Cut at SK Telecom Open
The LPGA is not saying much over one week after Michelle made the cut at the SK telecom open. The news may be big in South Korea, but the LPGA did not even include the feat in its weekly newsletter or even on its web site.
You get the feeling no one wants to address the issue, and if they do they say things like what Christie Kerr said in a recent interview, "That’s a great accomplishment," but then adding, "I think it would be interesting [to play in a men's event]. But if I were to do it, I would do it for the right reasons, and for me, that would be to raise money for charity."
Do it “for the right reasons…. to raise money for charity?” Wow, does that ever sound like a Michelle Wie slam. Does it seem like many of the LPGA members are distancing themselves from Michelle Wie? Makes you wonder will happen if she actually wins a men’s tournament. The tension could get pretty thick over the next few years, and if Michelle does actually win a men’s event who knows what will happen. She will change the landscape of women’s golf forever.
