Mulligan makes some great points here about the circumstances surrounding Michelle Wie’s DQ. Here is a link to an extended article about the sequences of events leading up to the disqualification. And here are two more thoughts to chew on:
1. If Michelle had involved a rules official or even her playing partner in her drop sequence and gotten approval for her drop spot, I suspect the LPGA officials would have given her the benefit of the doubt.
2. Do you think, had Wie made an amazing charge and Annika faded so that Wie pulled out a victory on Sunday, that the LPGA officials would have been quite so concerned about Saturday’s drop?
