RENO, Nev. – Mom was the first to react, her hand covering her mouth, as Bo Wie watched her teenage daughter execute one poor pitch after another and there was nothing she could do about it.
Dad was next. When the damage was complete on the fourth hole Friday at Montreaux Golf and Country Club, his daughter, Michelle, carding a double-bogey 7 to put her four shots behind the cut line, B.J. bent down in agony.
Last was Michelle, who had started her round on the back nine. Walking toward the next tee, she started muttering to herself. Gone, suddenly, was the confident stride of a woman with a real chance to make history, replaced by the frustration she can’t seem to escape anymore.
One week, she plays great but forgets to sign her card in the allotted time, and that’s all anyone will remember.
