Wie Ready to Go for Samsung

Michelle Wie is ready to go for the Samsung World Championship starting on Thursday in Palm Desert California. She is set to tee off at 11:30 am PST (8:30 HST)

Out of the 20 person field Michelle Wie is the only one that got in on a sponsors exemption and ended up bumping Natalie Gulbis from the tournament (haven’t found any Gulbis quotes yet.)

Michelle was recently quoted in the Honolulu Advertiser saying this about the upcoming tournament, “I’m a lot better, I feel like I’m getting stronger, and I feel healthy as a person too. Going to college and having fun.”

We’ll see if she shows that improvement both mentally and physically tomorrow.

    I have to say this is getting pretty lame!
    Wie is not what all the hype has built he rup to be…
    she is not mature enough yet to get the job done and in the long run she will not win in the LPGA or PGA tours cause her confidence is getting so beat up and she is not growing her talent her talent. we all know if your off emotionally then you play bad…can someone in her camp tell her to stay away, work on her insecurities and confidence then come back to the LPGA cause she can’t hang with the big boys!

    I believe as well that she is getting a little tarnished and her confidence has to be fading.

    She needs to take a year off and regroup, play one or two qualifying type LPGA tournaments. Beat up on someone her own size if she can do that any more. Then get into the LPGA and eventually PGA tournaments.

    Right now she’s playing all the marketing hype. She’s marketable, plane and simple. She needs to focus on her game.

    But then again, if you were one of the top 25 earning golfers (yes male and female) for this year, you’d go with the money as well. Well maybe not?
