I suppose it's a good thing for her play that the attention is on Michelle Wie, but it seems that no one, outside of my local paper, which has been following Aree Song and her twin sister Naree since they were 11 or 12, has been paying nearly the attention that one would expect when there is a 17 year old LPGA tour rookie in contention for a major championship. Sure, Wie is 2 back, but Song is tied for first, and has an excellent chance of winning since she has played the tournament since she was 13 and has generally done very well. Any other time, a 17 year old who's tied for first would be a huge story, but when you've got a 14 year old two strokes back, then that's your story.
Not that I ever watch golf of any kind, and particularly not the LPGA tour.
