Michelle Wie is stalking me

When I met Michelle two years ago during her first Quad Cities visit, I told her, “You’re a good kid with a great rack, but call me in a few years when you turn 18.”
She just keeps coming back. She won’t leave me alone and by the time she gets here, I’ll be married. It certainly isn’t the location; it might be the relatively weak field the John Deere Classic serves up most years. Maybe it’s the fact that this is where a casino allowed an underaged Tiger Woods entry. Either way, it looks like she will make her return.
The most likely PGA Tour event for Wie to play next is the John Deere Classic July 12-15. She missed the cut there by two strokes in 2005 and had to withdraw because of heat exhaustion midway through the second round last year. Record crowds turned out both times.
“Michelle has been invited,” John Deere tournament director Clair Peterson told Golf World on Monday. “The only person I have spoken with [on this matter] is B.J. Wie, and he has not said what David has said.” Peterson hopes to have an answer by the end of May. Several sources indicated Wie would make a commitment to the Deere within the next two weeks.
