She is playing in the LPGA event this week.

It's Michelle Wie. She changed her name to Michelle Wie West when she got married.

@Argonne69 is spot on it's Michelle Wie. She married the executive of the Golden State Warriors Basketball team Jonnie West a couple of years ago. As a fan of Michelle, even I'm still getting used to her name now. 🙂

 

She's had a good round today  started with Bogey on the 10th (1st hole of the day) but birdied long bombs on 1st, 2nd and 3rd holes. She finished -2 currently 4 back with afternoon wave going out soon.

 I know its a different name, but every time I hear Jonnie West, I keep thinking of Hajji, Bandit, and Race Bannon ... for those of you of a certain age!

Did her parents come out of retirement too to shadow her around the golf course?

It had that "hip" quality to it with the music ... it was kinda like an animated version of Indiana Jones!

That would be Johnny Quest! (But I think that's what you mean).

 

Johnny West was my cowboy action figure!

 

Whether cartoon or normal TV, Race Bannon was the baddest man ever!

Its unrelated, but all this Johnny Quest and Race Bannon talk makes me think of Thundarr the Barbarian.

 

Lords of Light!

 

LOL

 

[GrandStranded]

Johnny Quest was one of the most underrated cartoon shows ever.

Johnny West was a favorite collectable on American Pie 2:

I wonder if Michelle knows that scene?
