Michelle Wie’s week leading up to the Casio World open was great. She was donating money both at home in Hawaii and in Japan, she was wowing reporters with her Japanese, and she was discussing her goals to play under par. It all sounded great, and she seemed ready to get those previous mens tournaments behind her.
But things don’t always go according to plan.
She began the day at the 10th hole at the Kuroshio Country Club. There was a slight drizzle, which everyone had to play in for the day, and she started out with troubles. Michelle began on that hole with a bogey and followed shortly after with bogies on the 14th through 18th holes as well. Her drives weren’t on from the get go making it tough for her to get into a rhythm.
The leaders for the tournament shot a 6-under 66 while Michelle Wie finished the day with 9 bogeys, putting her at 9-over 81. She sits in 101st place just two strokes ahead of last place. It’s going to be tough for her to come back and make the cut, but crazier things have happend.
