The Michelle Wie Buzz continues this week at the Women’s British Open and while it looks like Michelle is about to miss the cut at Royal Birkdale we still can’t help but appreciate how far this young woman has come.
From a 14 year old phenom to a 22 year old has been to the top of the golf world. Wie is the most recognized female golfer in the world, critical to the success of the LPGA and a young woman who is finally comfortable with being both.
Wie has come a long way in her young life and Gene Wojciechowski profiles the U.S. Open champion in this revealing interview.
You can see the strain in Michelle’s face in the early pictures of her career. But now, even before her victory at Pinehurst, she has been all smiles. They are the smiles of a young woman who has survived the trials of unrealized expectations and now is so very comfortable with her life and herself.
The grace this young woman has displayed this season is simply wonderful. She knows she has seen the lowest of the lows and truly appreciates the high she is on right now.
