    ... is going to be hard.

    She's 9 over while playing the second round.

    The king of thread titles scores again.

    I must admit, I was hooked and being reeled in....

    Has anyone ever made a PGA Tour cut with a 9 on a par-4 (as she did today)?

    And she's not even old enough to enjoy a cheap craps game in downtown Reno.

    She's old enough to tell her parents to quit embarassing her.

    The parents are an embarrassment, but she's the one putting the peg in the ground.

    When will Michelle Wie say what my 18-year-old daughter tells me all the time: "I'm 18 and I can do what I want."

    She had a quintuple bogey 9 on #8.

    The good news is that she apparently made it through all 18 holes, unlike a couple years ago on the men's tour.

    Better than playing the Women's British Open?

    No more exemptions - make her qualify for men's events such as the U.S. Open.

    I'm all for Wie playing in the events but she is embarrassing herself and the game. Golf isn't baseball or football where she can be physically overmatched - either you get the ball in the hole in fewer strokes or you don't.

    Go home, I'll get the gator that got your arm.

    I just hope she signs her scorecard this time.

    Why does she play in men's events where she can't make the cut, but she feels too good to play in a women's major? If the top LPGA players aren't in the men's tour, Michelle Wie definitely should stay away. From golf. Permanently. She is very overrated.
