Michelle Wie's high hopes for the Open
Michelle Wie was highly delighted to hear that women are to be allowed to
qualify for the Open.
Golfing phenomenon Michelle Wie, who turned professional last week, was
tied third in the Women's British Open and this would make her eligible
for Open regional qualifying for Hoylake.
"I will definitely try and qualify if it fits into my schedule," Michelle Wie said.
"It would be a really good experience to play in the men's British
Open. I know it is a tough route but it would be all worth it."
Michelle Wie has played in three PGA Tour events and never made the cut
but she admits she would love to play alongside the men on a regular
basis.
Women were previously not allowed to enter the Open, but under the new
rules the top five finishers from each of the four women's majors will
be able to take part in the 18-hole Open regional qualifying.
