Wie, or any other woman, will never play on the PGA Tour on a regular basis, because there's no money in it for them. Making an occasional cut would be a major accomplishment and the curiosity factor would fade quickly with most golf fans. I have no problem with women playing golf in men's tournaments, I just don't think they'll be very successful in the long run. Wie is a phenom, but what has she won? Yes, she's only 14 and she will get better, but will she be good enough to consistantly beat the men on 7200+ yard PGA courses? I very much doubt it. As for playing in the Master's.....it's not the Woman's US Open and there will be no "free pass". She needs to win something that will qualify her to play there and that's a very difficult task.
