No Big Wiesy, but watch for Ernie

Well, despite having Ian Baker-Finch drool over her while she missed putts and greens, Michelle Wie didn’t crack the Top 20 in Hawaii this week. In fact, she didn’t even make the cut, ending her week with par far out of reach and in the back of the pack. Hopefully she’ll head back to playing some am events, but I wouldn’t bet on it. Watch for her father to continue to parade her out for the rest of the year. And yes, this has gotten tired….

While the TV coverage on ESPN spent a lot of time on Wie, the Big Easy made the course look easy for a stretch of holes. I’d put money on Ernie at the Masters this year — he played an amazing stretch of golf yesterday.
