Since when did Michelle Wie become a competitive skier? Dude, not the same thing.

Why ? Why lose the points in your race just to say you did, or can compete against some of the men ? We all know she can compete and beat some of them, but winning could be another thing..., GO Lindsey !!!

Dude, I was referring to a professional women athlete competing against men. Results will probably be similar.

Dude-Michelle Wie hadn't really ever won anything, not very accomplished in her sport when she attempted to play against men. Not so with Vonn, she is a World and Olympic champion. You may be right, the result may be the same, but you have to like her for wanting to try.
