The No. 3 ranking […]

Bradford Applin On Oct. 5th, a girl just shy of her 16th birthday became a professional golfer.  Eight days later that same girl took her first shot as a professional on the LPGA tour.  Eleven days later she was disqualified. Say hello to Michelle Wie.  She isn’t some elaborate stunt generated through media hype either.  […]
