A Wie-bit too whiny....

I am growing very weary of the players and others whining about Michelle Wie playing in men's events on the links. As Deep Throat said so many years ago---follow the money. The PGA tour makes plenty off TV, etc., but local tournament committees live on tickets and concessions. The gate at Pebble Beach is one thing, the take in the Quad Cities is another. If the John Deere Classic, already screwed by being right before the quest for the Claret Jug across the pond. needs a boost at the gate, I'm all for it. With Hunter Mahan and J.L. Lewis at the top of the leader board, they need all the spark they can get!
