It looks like Wie will be
playing in Korea between 4-7 May in the SK Telecom Open. Here are some cool facts about Wie.
Quote:
Wie was born and raised in Hawaii, but her parents are from South Korea and it was the first language she learned. At the Sony Open this month, Wie conducted television interviews in Korean and English.
Wie played an LPGA tournament at Jeju Island, South Korea, in 2003 at age 14. She was last in the 69-player field.

Here is my Michelle Wie story. I was at the Pearl City Golf Club in Hawaii using the driving range. There was this tall, young girl driving the ball beautifuly. She was hitting the same flag on the range over and over. I thought to myself, "there is no way a girl is going to out hit me." So, I muscled maybe one shot further than hers out of about 30 shots. I later learned it was Michelle Wie. This was about 2 years ago ehwn she was just starting to get known.
