Nike's Investment Pays Off


Or at least it starts to. This past weekend, Michelle Wie finally won something as a pro:

The Solheim Cup

Founded in 1990 by Karsten Manufacturing Corporation (KMC) - makers of PING golf equipment - The Solheim Cup features 12 of the top European born players from the Ladies European Tour (LET) and 12 top American born players from the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA).

"This year, when the last match was over, [the Americans]ran around the 18th green hugging each other and waving American flags.
Wie showed that when she's on song, few can touch her. Her drive on the par-5 15th went 305 yards and she hit an eight-iron to 20 feet. She two-putted for the birdie, and Alfredsson couldn't make the putt to match her."
