She has never won a title with the girls. Many people, pros or fans feel the PGA &#8211; men&#8217;s tour should have a rule to require girls have to win five Ladies&#8217; title before she could qualify for the boy&#8217;s tour. I think that&#8217;s a good start. Before her first major win, Danica Patrick faced pressure too, but was not the same kind. There isn&#8217;t a ladies racing league.\u00a0 (My advice to Milka Duno .. win a race before throw in your towel !!)<\/p>\n<p><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"425\" height=\"344\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/hXUd6n1Vti8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"425\" height=\"344\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/hXUd6n1Vti8&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<p>People are blaming the bad advice Wie&#8217;s getting from her parents.
