It’s interesting to see Michelle Wie go up against some of the world’s best golfers, regardless of gender. More power to her. Hopefully at the upcoming John Deere Classic she can make the cut and show she can hold her own while playing with the best. To quote:
Michelle Wie accepted a sponsor’s exemption Monday to play in the John Deere Classic, the second time this year the 15-year-old from Hawaii will take her promising game to the PGA Tour.
The John Deere Classic, played on the TPC at Deere Run in Silvis, Ill., will be held July 7-10.
Playing in the John Deere Classic, a 7,193-yard course that plays to a par 71, will be part of a busy summer schedule for Wie. She has exemptions or has qualified for all four women’s majors this year, and she plans to try qualifying for the U.S. Open in May and the U.S. Amateur Public Links in June.

I went to go watch her play yesterday at the John Deere Classic. She was one under par at the end of the day and if she keeps playing like that today than she should be able to make the cut. She played great and the media was huge. She had some nice birdies and even a chance for eagle on a par 5. I hope she doesnt loose it and keeps it up today. Good luck to her.
