Michelle is not playing Mobile. I saw a few tweets a few weeks back from Japanese fans saying she's playing in Japan in May so she probably decided to stay in Hawaii instead of flying back to US and then fly to Japan. I think this is the tournament site www.ntv.co.jp/w-ladies/ too bad it's only in Japanese. She had a photo shoot yesterday, wonder what magazine it will be for. Michelle Wie @themichellewie Had so much fun shooting with the great @turelillegraven. Can't wait to see how the photos turn out! |

Thanks for the heads up, the web site is www.ntv.co.jp/w-ladies/ (I think you have a comma in your link or something...). You can see her picture in the poster on the site. The event is May 3-6 I was thinking she should play a couple of non LPGA events to try to help her build her confidence and get some tournament practice. I was thinking something like the Cactus tour or Suncoast Series, but the JLPGA is okay too, I guess. I don't think she's every played a women's event in Japan. |

That is confirmed Michelle is listed fro the Japanese Salonpas event, also included is Morgan Pressel.
The information from Ledbetter on Michelle converting to a basic fade is good, since it confims what I have observed at the Kia and Kraft events.
For golf historians, the change to a fade is what started Ben Hogan on his winning career...

Umm is it just me or does it seem like Leadbetter is throwing Michelle under the bus maybe he's kind of nudging her under the bus. His comments feel like the decline in her game is her fault and he's not accepting responsibility for not being able to fix it. I know he's bringing up Stanford and video teachings are hindering his teachings but she's been dealing w/ that her entire college life and she wasn't doing as bad as she is now. No No don't try to shift the blame to that your lessons and her connection w/ Leadbetter just aren't working any more.
If I was Michelle if I didn't fire him completely i'd at least mention a break b/c something has got to give lets switch things up and see if that works. It can't get any worse right since she's not making cuts at all.

Could be that fade. |

Hello Wie Nation:  Hello Wiesyfan: "Michelle is not playing Mobile. I saw a few tweets a few weeks back from Japanese fans saying she's playing in Japan in May so she probably decided to stay in Hawaii instead of flying back to US and then fly to Japan.

I downloaded a Google toolbar with translator and was able to find this:  My toolbar translator only translates text...Ii will not translate headings... Does anybody know if the above site has live scoring? I can't tell if this site is a Jlpga site or a TV site... Here are some Entries.... Chenayon (miss), Anne Sonju, Shin Ji-ae, Kim In-kyung (miss), Ai Miyazato, Shanshan phone, Chie Arimura, Knowledge princess Lee , M. Pressel, Michelle Wie, Sakura Yokomine, Princess Park Jin, Mika Miyazato, Yuri Fudo, Yukari Baba, All Mi-jeong, Saiki Miki Corporation. My toolbar translator translated some names into English meanings...  At the orginal site, if you click on the hole numbers you get a hole discription.... got to love wie golf bobawiefan |

Hello Wie Nation: Found it: It’s in the Jlpga site…   Now the big question is... what kind of live scoring??? I hope it’s not like the LET…Only tour members have stats… Just have to wait and see… In the meantime the adventure continues…looking for that Oyster Bed… Got to love wie golf bobawiefan |

Hello Wie Nation: This link to individual live scorecards is still working… At Lpga.com., In tournament records of past tournaments, there is no link to live scoring of individual players…The past tournaments only reveal the final results of that tournament… I don’t know if these links will still be working at the end of this year; and into next year… So, I will be posting the link to Michelle’s scorecard and stats in the 2012 tournament record thread in the hope that these links will be working in 2013...and beyond...
