LEBANON, Ohio -- Michelle Wie's quest for a Masters invitation ended Friday with a 5 and 4 loss in the quarterfinals of the U.S. Amateur Public Links.

Wie, the 15-year-old high school junior, lost four of the first five holes to Clay Ogden and never recovered. Ogden, a junior at BYU from West Point, Utah, was brilliant throughout the match.

Ogden won holes No. 1, 2, 4, 5, and 9 to take a 5 up lead at the turn after Wie picked up her only win of a hole when Ogden bogeyed the 10th hole. Ogden then came back to birdie the 11th hole and push his lead back to 5 up with seven to play.

The players then halved the next three holes with Ogden closing out Wie on a conceded par putt on the 14th green. Ogden was appearing in the quarterfinals of the men's Public Links for the second year in a row.

All hail Clay Ogden!

All men speak his name with reverence and pride in their voices.

All hail Clay Ogden!

All men speak his name with reverence and pride in their voices. That's hard to do...when his name is Clay. That's such a faggy first name (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Probably short for Clarence.

No wonder he calls himself Clay, plus he wasn't able to name himself. He was too young.

i think she should take Tiger's advice. When asked, he said he thought she should concentrate strictly on the amateur circuit (her peers) and learn to win first. getting beat by better guys all the time is not going to make her better faster. she will learn a lot, but nothing beats the psychological advantage one gains by winning consitantly. If Tiger gave me advice on winning in golf, I think I'd take it.
