Michelle Wie Graduated to LPGA Tour with Brawn & Smarts While India's Jeev Milkha Singh Won For a Cause close to Home
Has Michelle been receiving preferential treatment all this time? Well, the complaint comes because she receives exemptions, 53 of them or invitations. This time, she finished among the top 20 players at the Q-school to become a card-carrying member of the LPGA Tour.
The 19-year old from Hawaii feels like she belongs with others. "It's a good feeling." Wie said. "I really earned it. I legitimately went through Q-school. I took my medicine. And I got it. It feels good. It's like high school graduation."
Will she play against the men? Well, for now, Wie plans on returning to Stanford for the Winter quarter. She plans on playing a full LPGA schedule next year.
Jeev Milkha Singh did not start the Nippon Series Cup in Tokyon on good emotional footing. He had just lost his first stillborn child. But in the end, encouraged by his wife, Kudrat Singh, recovering in a Tokyo hospital, he played and won. "I will dedicate this win to my wife," said Singh. "She is healthy now. Better things are on the way."
Singh won by two strokes, closing with a 4-under 66 at Tokyo Yomiuri for a 12-under 268 total. In the Singapore Open, he beat Ernie Els and Padraig Harrington by a stroke. He also won the European tour's Bank Austria Open and the Japanese tour's Sega Sammy Cup.
Mr. Singh is a winner after all. The baby will come later.

The First Man To Set World Records in 100 and 200 Meter, Jamaican Usain Bolt Showed The Power of Yam


Jamaican wunderkind Usain Bolt hurtled to his second world record and his second Olympic gold medal in Beijing, finishing the 200-meter race today in 19.30 seconds to break Michael Johnson's 12-year-old mark.
Bolt became the first man to break the world record in both the 100 and 200 at the same Olympics. Not since Carl Lewis in 1984 has any man doubled in the Olympic 100 and 200.
