Nothing against her as a person, but she has shown virtually nothing in her field. Sure a couple of seconds and thirds in some LPGA tounaments; but I thought the whole point of golf was winning. How come no real press on Morgan Pressel? She's already won a major! I blame the press for perpetually focusing on her and making us believe that her consistent failures are news. Hey I can shoot 88 almost anyday from the womens tees with ease as well as not make the cut on a PGA tournament and I have less talent than her. So I can do as much as her with less talent.

Daly has competed with golf's greats, however he is NO LONGER a PGA Tour Professional. I have seen and read he is having a difficult run ... but until he re-gains his PGA Tour Card, Daly will continue to be a golf side show.

While Daly has not won in ages, he has paid his dues, he's won Majors and gone toe-to-toe with the best of them. Wie has NEVER won anything. She doesn't deserve to play on the LPGA let alone on the big boy Tour. She's all hype and no substance, just like Jennifer Capriati when she first came out. Michelle needs to fire her over-bearing dad and start listening to the real Golf people around her. The Daly and Wie situations are different.

Now she is going to play the John Deere ... Shame on the John Deere Tourney for allowing her an exemption to play ... Listen we all know why she got the exemption ... as a Money Draw for the tourney ... when she announced she would play ... ticket sales jumped... The sad part ... Wie thinks she can compete with the PGA Tour Professionals (sure she can) .... Again so does JOHN DALY ...
