Michelle Wie in contention, then disqualified.
From Associated Press:
Michelle Wie finished the third round of the State Farm Classic alone in second on Saturday—then was disqualified for failing to immediately sign her scorecard a day earlier.
Wie was playing her best golf of the year, finishing off a 5-under 67 to get to 17 under for the tournament, one stroke back of Yani Tseng.
That’s when Wie was disqualified by LPGA officials, who said they’d learned during play Saturday from tournament volunteers about the 18-year-old’s mistake.
“I don’t know why or how it happened,” said Wie, who had been crying moments earlier. She took no questions before leaving the clubhouse at Panther Creek Country Club.
Sue Witters, the LPGA’s director of tournament competitions, disqualified Wie in a small office in an LPGA trailer at the golf course after asking her what had happened.
“She was like a little kid after you tell them there’s no Santa Claus,” Witters said.
Day-um, Witters. That’s cold as hell. Are you always that much of a bitch? This 18 year old girl is busting her ass, gets disqualified for something YOU should have caught, and then you sell her out like that because she cried?
Sue Witters is officially Clubhouse Cancer’s ‘Asshole of the Month’.
Congrats, bitch.
