Samsung World Championship

So, Michelle Wie is third after the third round. This is great. So far she is proving that her decision to turn pro was a sound one. She can compete. Hopefully, she will do well tomorrow and silence some critics. I did a google news search on this event and I was amazed at how many negative headlines there were - headlines suggesting that Annika Sorenstam was out there in some antagonistic role trying to teach Michelle a lesson for turning pro or something. These so-called journalists need to stick with reporting facts and leave the Hearst-inspired "remember the maine" yellow journalism to the tabloids. These writers obviously do not follow golf and are not fans or else they would trust the golfers to make the news and wouldn't need to create news on their own. I'm sure Annika Sorenstam is quite capable of making some news worthy of writing and reading.
