2006 Fields Open in Hawaii

Big Wiesy Finally Earns First LPGA Paycheck

KAPOLEI, Hawaii -- Michel Wie heads back to high school Monday with $73,227 from her first LPGA Tour paycheck and a diamond-encrusted watch from her latest endorsement deal.

The 16-year-old junior at Punahou School was particularly enamored with the Omega watch she was given before the final round Saturday at the Fields Open, where she dazzled a hometown gallery with seven birdies in her round of 66 that left her one shot out of a playoff.

How can some one so tall always seem to come up short on the golf course but not at the bank? She is a teen wonder and idle the fans love her and I must admit I do too!
However when is she going to win a tournament?

She has every thing going for her, looks, age, and sponsors! How many sixteen year old million Aires do you no! She also is very talented, driving the ball three-hundred plus yards down the fairway. Her iron game is also pretty good.

She seems to thrive on the fans attention and they follow her like she is the Pied Piper of golf! I read last night that her third place finish put her in second place on the tour and she has not WON!

My grandpa use to say son,it's not weather you win or loose but how you play the game. Michel has put that in the BANK!
