Comments on: $22,000 for Michelle Wie? Is it worth the price? http://www.tourgolfblog.com/2009/11/22000-for-michelle-wie-is-it-worth-the-price.html Tue, 07 Feb 2012 21:29:34 +0000 hourly 1 By: Tom Woods http://www.tourgolfblog.com/2009/11/22000-for-michelle-wie-is-it-worth-the-price.html/comment-page-1#comment-2659 Tom Woods Sun, 23 May 2010 16:22:18 +0000 http://www.tourgolfblog.com/?p=1694#comment-2659 It is a shame, that an energy trader, whose job involves a pencil and paper to scrape the cream form the top and increase our cost of energy, is the kind of person that we rely on to support our love of the game. But considering the companies golf sells out to, he is probably on the bottom of the usery list.

What fun they will have! Cheers!

I would pay that much money to see and "learn" about a golf professional's swing first-hand. That Michelle is easy on the eyes and has a great personality to boot makes it a whole lot easier on the checkbook. All the talk about being beaten by a girl is just the “male” ego talking.

And by the way, she's damn cute and I'll bet much more interesting to spend time with then say Vj and if not more interesting... alot easier on the eyes!!!!!! and as Forest Gump says, "that's all I have to say about that!" while I agree with your retort that it’s basically better to be beaten by a guy then a gal, she a professional athlete and well worth the same amount of money dollar for dollar as the guys.

I was also pondering the fact that he paid 22k to get out driven, out played and out scored by a 20 year old girl. When she's bombing 290 yard drives past him, he's going to feel like a goof. Now if it was Phil or Tiger, the ego wouldn't take such a beating because it's a guy. Better him than me I guess. Brian, I got to thinking the same thing after posting this.

While it's only a Pro Am for a day, she's a world class athlete who just won her first title and is guaranteed to KICK HIS ASS! Here's the real question, would anyone ask about this if he paid that same amount for a day with Phil, VJ or Camillo?
