Why would that be even brought up?
That's like saying if Tiger Woods shot someone, some people wouldn't like him for having shot someone. What's the point in even discussing that?
And what's the point in discussing Wie withdrawing from an event for any reasons other than being ill and unable to continue playing that event.

What reminds you of that?

Again what is that speculation based on? Shouldn't we also say that it would be similar if Phil Mickelson withdrew from an event because he wouldn't want to be outside the top 10. Discussing Phil Mickelson has no relevancy as neither does discussing Wie in that case.

At least that's something.
But the point is, why would anyone want to even suggest it. She has played about 30 lpga events, and about 8 mens events, and has had quite a few poor placings, but has never withdrawn due to that.
