LPGA disqualifies Wie from State Farm Classic for failing to si...

Another great job of David Leadbetter coaching. First he ruins her swing. Then her wrist. Now this

Don't worry, she's found her game again and she's very, very young with many, many more years to get even better.

Obviously she is focused at the end on something else.
What could it be? When you've finished the round, turn in the score, THE CARD SIGNATURE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT NEXT STEP. DUH

Sounds like they need to make the rules a bit more reasonable. Just because you walked out of the tent?

Poor Michelle, and she was playing so well too! What kind of stupid #@$%$# rule is that? It's not like she cheated or anything. That has absolutely nothing to do with how well she played. People should just give her a break already.

Let's treat her like a 9 year old instead of a professional. She knows the rules, and if she can't stay focused long enough to sign her score card that is not the fault of the LPGA. Duh?? If they made an exception for her it would not be fair to the ones who play by the rules.

Its to bad about about Wie but I think its times some rules are changed. The LPGA does not have a lot going for it and when they lose Wie a lot of viewers will be long gone during the final round on Sunday.
Its like basket ball,you dont throw out the stars or no one would go see the games.
I am sure she did not mean to cheat.Its almost like the LPGA does not want her around.

her caddy should be horswhipped

Changing the rules?!? Okay, why do you have to dribble the ball in basketball? That's a very stupid rule. It seems the game would move faster if the guard could just walk the ball down the court. And out of bounds?!? I mean c'mon ... the guys foot barely touched the out of bounds line ... give him a break.

ALFONSO, I was referring to a rule that, at least to the best of my understanding (don't know much about golf), has nothing to do with the skills required to play golf. Dribbling the ball is part of the skills required to play basketball. It's not like I tell them to change the rule, give her a break and let her drop the ball in with her hand!!!!

And the train wreck continues.....

Sorry Michelle but thems the rules. Obviously she's upset, and rightfully so. But she's also professional enough not to whine or beg for an exception. She'll have plenty more tournaments to play in and remember to sign her card.

First, competitors keeping each others scores is part of the rules and spirit of the game. The rule is the same for every player, and they all know it. She walked out without signing the card, and was brought back (too late), she had no idea she didn't sign it. If you've played as many tournaments as she has, there is no one to blame but herself, and to her credit, that's what she said in a press conference. She messed up, needs to learn from it,
And Ron in Ft Myers, not sure why the anger towards Leadbetter, but her biggest wrist injury was from falling, he's not teaching her how to jog. And seeing as how she has played plenty of tournaments, she does know the rule

I thing that for the totally demeaning comment by Witters, she should be fired immediately.

Wie is the only reason why I watch the LPGA golf and now that has ended.

THINK not thing

Grow up gal.

Ha Ha......Dumbsh*t

That's what happens when you you let kid's play in professional tournement's , It's happened before and she will make alot more mistakes in her career but as she grows up she won't cry as much .

Since when do you have to dribble???? They have not had to dribble in the NBA in 15 years. The rules on dribbling were changed when it was discovered most of the players could not walk and chew gum at the same time.

Poor coaching. No one else made that mistake.
