PGA.COM and PGATOUR.COM to provide special Michelle Wie coverage

By John Kim- PGA.com

She is one of the most compelling stories in sports; a heroine that can carry a sport to many, a victim of circumstance and questionable decisions to others. Her smile can illuminate an entire fairway -- and her frustrations can linger throughout a tournament. She is one of the most watched, photographed and written on figures in golf -- and she's only 18.

What makes Michelle Wie - well, Michelle Wie?

PGA.COM and PGATOUR.COM will provide special coverage of Michelle Wie's appearance at the Legends Reno-Tahoe Open this week. We will provide a shot-by-shot blog from inside the ropes, extensive video highlights of her round and a full photo gallery to capture each moment of triumph or setback. As she tries to make history once again, we will be there to record it in one of the most extensive ways ever seen.

We will also look into the phenomena that is Michelle Wie. How do the galleries welcome her? The other players? Are the criticisms she gets fair for an 18-year old just off her freshmen year of college?

Michelle Wie engenders strong feelings by many in golf, but there is no question that if she has a unique opportunity that could reshape the world of golf. The bigger question then is, will she ever do it? We may find some answers out this week. Stay with our special coverage for the best view of history as it happens in golf.

Wednesday:
• Why she was invited to play
• Scott McCarron shows support
• Criticism doesn't bother Wie
