You seriously mean she expected a win to be handed to her? We know that she is lazy and doesn't like to practice, but come on! That's such a third-grade statement. I'm ashamed that adults still use it.

If we don't, readers might actually believe that she matters.<br /> <br /> Point #2...Those who forget their history are doomed to repeat it...Don't you think that Thompson is on the razor's edge of wie or not wie? She is younger than Wie was when she turned pro. Fortunately, she has siblings (that always helps) and parents who seem a bit more informed.

Three stroke lead with 18 holes to play. We all know what the outcome would have been. Michelle making those two 15 footers for par?? I don't think so. In the past we have seen Michelle fold under pressure both in the LPGA and PGA. In a Korean PGA event she could go par, bogey on the last two holes in order to make the cut...bogey, bogey, end of story. http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ron.mon/2010/07/10/the-integrity-of-the-us-women-s-open-at-oakmont#c69847 Mon, 12 Jul 2010 21:20:36 +0000 Joe Cool [Visitor] c69831@http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ Seven three putt greens does not a US Open Champion make! http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ron.mon/2010/07/10/the-integrity-of-the-us-women-s-open-at-oakmont#c69831 Mon, 12 Jul 2010 05:12:55 +0000 George [Visitor] c69772@http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ Paula Creamer wins the U.S. Open. If her thumb holds up, there's your rising LPGA star. Her critics can no longer say she's the best to never win a major. Great going Paula, showing the right way to get to the elite of the golf world is through hard work, toughness, and making use of talent -- and not through hype. http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ron.mon/2010/07/10/the-integrity-of-the-us-women-s-open-at-oakmont#c69772 Sun, 11 Jul 2010 21:49:05 +0000 John D [Visitor] c69767@http://www.travelgolf.com/blogs/ Fantastic....Now at only 1 win in 76 starts. Wow!!! How can anyone with such an impressive record be ranked 10th in Rolex points?

For the very first time Michelle actually admitted that her performance was a "complete failure". Before, it was "you know, I hit perfect putts all day and none of them would go in".
