Michelle Wie wins U.S. Women's Open

Claims her first major championship with a two-shot victory over Stacy Lewis



That's what I'm talking about. Over the weekend, Michelle Wie won the 2014 U.S. Women's Open. The 24-year-old from Hawaii finished with a two-shot victory over Stacy Lewis to claim her first major title.

It was a long time coming. Wie first made the cut at the 2003 U.S. Women's Open when she was 13 years old, amidst everyone trumpeting the young phenom as Golf's Next Big Thing. It's been a bit of a rocky road since then, but on Sunday at Pinehurst No. 2, Wie made good on that hype.

What is up with Michelle Wie? This week, the young golf phenom skipped a major to play on the PGA Tour, which had a lot of her fellow competitors scratching their heads.

Wie skips a major, and some wonder why

Wie, who is managed by her parents, was listed in qualifying for the Women's British Open at Sunningdale. But she pulled out and instead has a sponsor's exemption for the Legends Reno-Tahoe Open at Reno, Nevada. She has yet to win on the women's tour and has never made the cut on the PGA Tour.

It's been a rough professional start for her, but lately she seems to be returning to form (scorecard mishap aside). I'm sure she has a lot of people giving her advice and telling her what to do... isn't anyone telling her she should concentrate on getting back in the game and winning?
