Woman Claims She Was Fired From Lingerie Shop For Being 'Too Hot'

Michelle Wie Except that now a sponsor has offered her cash to play against men, and she's jumping at it. The 17-year-old Wie will play in the John Deere Classic in July, making her eighth attempt to make the cut against men. So far, she's 0-for-7.
I have no objection to Wie playing on the PGA Tour -- in fact, I think it's exciting, and I'm more likely to tune in when Wie is playing. But this seems certain to stunt her progress. Wie will grow more as a player if she's playing against women in tournaments she has a chance of winning, not against men in tournaments where she's just hoping not to come in dead last.
Wie's coach, David Leadbetter, said earlier this month that he had worked on convincing her parents that she's not ready to play men. "The thing I've tried to explain to them is that you have to work your way up the ladder," he said. Apparently that message didn't get through.
