No Wie At Safeway International
After receiving a sponsor exemption to play, Michelle Wie dropped out of the 2008 Safeway International. She has reportedly “tweaked” an injury to her wrist during practice and immediately sought out consultation from a doctor and Los Angeles’ hand specialist where she was diagnosed with only a sprain. Still, the sprain was enough for the 18-year old Stanford freshman to sit out this year’s tournament.
In the Fields Open in Hawaii late last month, Wie finished 20 strokes behind winner Paula Creamer. It was the only tournament Wie has played in this year.
