I read stories on Michelle Wie, and it really, really bothers me, and I'm not sure why. I'm not a complete male shovenist (how the hell you spell that?), but it bothers me. It didn't bother me when Annika played on the mens tour. I have a couple reasons I think Wie bothers me.

Annika played and won on the womens tour. Wie hasn't won on the womens tour yet. She probably should before she competes with the men.

I think it also has to do with her age. She's 15. She shouldn't be able to compete with men. She's 15 and a woman, I'm 23 and a man. I love golf. I should be able to be better than her. And I'm not. I have advantages when it comes to sports in two categories over her, age and sex. And yet she's insanely better than me. And it bothers me.

Alright, rant over.
