Allisen Corpuz Seems Destined For Life Of Golf Diva-dom

This smilin' little firecracker sittin' all pretty, looking like she just shivved a man in a back-alley brawl, is 10-year-old Allisen Corpuz of Oahu. At 10 years 3 months 9 days old, Allisen is the youngest golfer ever to play in a USGA championship event, when she appeared at this morning's Women's Public Links Tournament in Erin Hills. That distinction previously went to Michelle Wie, who was 10 years 9 months old when she played in the event in 2000.

Wie, who is quickly paving a legacy as one of the most over-hyped busts in sports history, is not the player young Allisen wants to emulate. She hates those comparisons. In fact, Allisen's overbearing father, Marcos, is not a big fan of Michelle Wie at all. According to him, Wie is two tons of bitch in golf spikes.

“Michelle Wie wasn’t very nice to the kids at the tournament,” Marcos said. “She didn’t seem to want to be around them, so she definitely is not Allisen’s role model.

“Allisen likes Morgan Pressel because she was much friendlier with the kids. She let all the kids take pictures with her.”

Hmm. I think Marcos has is more of a fan of Morgan Pressel than his daughter. Is there any proof out there that he wasn't the eagle-eyed photog who took this shot?

Allisen make the smartest decision of your life — don't let your father handle any aspect of your career from now on.
