Her putting….well…
her first coach kept telling Michelle to work on her putting….Michelle loved to watch the
ball fly thru the air….putting was boring….reason now struggles with stance, stroke…
last tourney she was pounding the putter….LOL…..

Yes, from the comments I’ve heard on sports radio and the comments I’ve read on the internet, those descriptions seem fitting. To those people: Have you bought pricey tickets to golf tournaments specifically to see her play? Did you purchase oodles of Nike stock when she signed her endorsement deals? Did you buy her endorsed products or Wie merchandise as an investment? She likely doesn’t owe you ANYTHING! If ‘that much’ of your personal well-being revolves around the reverence of golf professionals, the PGA, LPGA, etc. that’s pathetic. GET A LIFE!!!

Here’s a reason why she SHOULD try. When she is long gone from the sport what will she be remembered for? Tons of potential, little of it fullfilled. Look at the best athletes and see for most a common thread is that while they have made a ton of money they are still driven by their desire to win and leave a legacy of being the best in their sport. While I’ll grant while many athletes come from modest, even poor upbringing, Michelle was raised very comfortably. She is not driven, maybe she has lost her passion for the game, just going along to fullfill her obligations and retire into the sunset, another one of those athletes who never played up to the hype and expectations.

Crybaby, not hardly. Misdirected by poor advice from family, perhaps.
