A Very Short Biography of Golf Prodigy Michelle Wie


When one first does a casual search for the biography of Michelle Wie, one might come across the following:

Biography of Michelle Wie
Height:
6' 0"
Birthdate: October 11, 1989

Birthplace: Honolulu, Hawaii
Nickname: Big Wiesy

When one does a second search for the biography of Michelle Wie, one might come across the following additional information:

Michelle Wie

school performance: excellent student

extracurricular activities: reading, computers, and drawing

When one pursues more information by doing a further search, however, one finds that Michelle Wie is the daughter of Professor of Transportation at the University of Hawaii, B.J. Wie and real estate agent, Bo Wie. In addition, one will discover that the finalist golfer played her first tournament, the 2003 Kraft Nabisco Championship, at thirteen; won her first tournament, the U.S. Women's Amateur Public Links, at thirteen (the youngest winner ever); and was one of the longest hitters (with drives 20 to 40 yards further than the other golfers to over 300 yards) on the LPGA Tour, at thirteen.

One also will learn that Michelle Wie began playing the game that has brought her at such a young age awards and accolades when she was much younger: she started at four years old. She learned so quickly and played so well that by ten years old she was shooting a 64, which gave her the honor of making the field for the first time--for the USGA Women's Amateur Public Links Championship—and as the youngest ever to do so; and by eleven years old was winning matches; and by twelve was noted to be the youngest semifinalist ever to qualify for and play in the USGA Amateur Championship and by thirteen the youngest to make the field for an LPGA Tour event. .

And finding more current information on Michelle Wie, one comes to the news of today's fourteen year-old, who recently played a remarkable game at the 2004 PGA Tour Sony Open—where she performed with an off-the-tee average of 270+.

Just as important and just as impressive is the Michelle Wie material one can extract from a Michelle Wie fan site/bulletin board: here her many faithful followers query about her next appearance, inform each other about her upcoming tours and her latest stats, bemoan her absences, report news about and the research they've done on this golfing prodigy, notify the others at the site about her televised appearances in such faraway countries as Taiwan, and express their love, appreciation, and respect for the fourteen year-old from Hawaii…was nicknamed The Big Wiesy, by the way, by contender and fellow golfer, Tom Lehman, because she has, like Ernie Els has he maintained, an easy swing.
