Wie wrap-up

Lots of coverage from all angles on Michelle Wie's failed attempt to qualify for the U.S. Open.  The sports columnists range from saying she is "doing a great thing" to taking her parents to task for the choices Wie is making. Blaine Newnman at the Seattle Times says "The issue, for me, isn't gender, but age."  On ESPN, Wie has a lot of people in her corner with Wojciechowski leading with  "The next chowderhead who says Michelle Wie doesn't 'belong' within a par 5 of men's golf gets to catch one of her drives with his teeth"  and Sirak wrote that "The simple fact is that Wie gets better every time out." Just google her name and hit the news tab and peruse the 1,000+ stories that turn up.
