Michelle Wie first LPGA

Michelle Wie wins her first LPGA title in Mexico. She thrust her arms in the air, covered her mouth and before long, she finally tasted that LPGA tradition for first-time winners by getting showered with beer. "For sure, it's definitely off my back," said Wie, now 20 and in her third year at Stanford. "I think that hopefully, life will be a lot better. But I still have a lot of work to do. I still have a lot to improve. It just feels so great right now."
