Michelle Wie Biography

Thursday, August 5th, 2010

Michelle WieMichelle Sung Wie (Korean: Wie Seong-mi Hangul: born October 11, 1989) is an American professional golfer who plays on the LPGA Tour. In 2006, she was named in a Time magazine article: “one of 100 people who shape our world.” At age 10, she became the youngest player to qualify for USGA amateur championship. Wie would also become the

youngest winner of the US Women’s Amateur public links and the youngest to qualify for a LPGA tour event. Wie turned professional shortly before her 16th birthday accompanied by an enormous amount of hype and endorsements.

Professional career / Pre-LPGA membership (2005-2006): Having turned professional Wie was not a member of any professional tour. LPGA Tour membership age requirements require a golfer to be 18 although some players such as Morgan Pressel and Aree Song have successfully petitioned for an exemption to join at age 17. Wie chose not to request an exemption and was thus only allowed to participate in a limited number of LPGA Tour events when given a sponsor’s exemption from 2005 to 2008. She also chose not to participate in the Tour’s Qualifying Tournaments (or “Q-School”) until December 2008 when she finished 7th to gain LPGA membership for the 2009 season.
