Round One:Wie credits putting for 72 not being higherBy Randall Mell  LANCASTER, Pa. – Michelle Wie was frustrated she couldn’t get her irons dialed in for the first round of her title defense at the U.S. Women’s Open Thursday, but she left Lancaster Country Club believing her new swing is close to where she needs it to contend this week. Wie opened with a 2-over-par 72, six shots behind the co-leaders in the morning wave. “I definitely feel like I'm in there,” Wie said. “I think I held it together today. I had a lot of opportunities where I had to make big putts, and I'm proud of myself for that.” Wie, playing through a left-hip injury that led to an overhaul of her swing the last six weeks, hit just seven of 14 fairways and 11 greens in regulation. “Just a couple of shots here and there,” she said. “I couldn't get my irons as close as I wanted. Just couldn't get that going today. Made a lot of good par saves, kind of a mediocre round, but at the same time just a lot of good feelings. I'm excited about the rest of the tournament.” Wie narrowed her stance to relieve stress on her hip. It’s changed the nature of her swing, including the rhythm. She’s wearing a brace on her left ankle, another joint stressed by her former swing. “Definitely feeling more and more comfortable,” Wie said of the new swing. “I think that's where a couple of shots come from. It's not automatic yet. Still have to think about it a little bit. But every shot, every hole I'm playing, it's feeling more and more comfortable.” Link to Article:www.golfchannel.com/news/golf-central-blog/wie-credits-putting-72-not-being-higher/ Defending US Women's Open champion Michelle Wie

Wie battles through hip pain for 2-under 68By Randall Mell  LANCASTER, Pa. – Michelle Wie’s ailing left hip was acting up Friday at the U.S. Women’s Open, but it couldn’t dampen her satisfaction in posting a 2-under-par 68 that keeps alive her chances of defending her title. Wie was limping noticeably by day’s end and yet a round of five birdies and three bogeys moved her into a tie for 12th, seven shots off the lead. “I'm pretty happy with how my round went, a lot better than yesterday,” Wie said. “Kind of felt good that I kind of fixed what went wrong yesterday. I hit a lot more fairways today and my irons were a little bit sharper than yesterday. I just have to keep on improving what I improved on today.” Wie is battling bursitis, an inflammation in her hip. She has had a cortisone injection and two platelet-rich-plasma injections over the last six weeks. She also has issues with her left knee and left ankle. “I’m hanging in there,” Wie said.

Six shots behind, Wie isn't conceding defeatBy Randall Mell  LANCASTER, Pa. – Michelle Wie’s 2-under-par 68 Saturday at the U.S. Women’s Open was adrenaline-fueled. That’s what her caddie, Duncan French, sensed. Wie is feeding off the excitement of being back on the leaderboard in her title defense, feeding off a rush of sensations that is proving medicinal as she hobbles her way around giant galleries at Lancaster Country Club with an aching left hip and ankle. “I think there’s adrenaline helping her through,” French said. “You make birdies and hear all that noise out here, and you don’t feel the pain as much.” Wie’s ball striking might be better than it’s been all year, but it might not be enough with Amy Yang and Stacy Lewis pulling away. Wie’s 68 left her six shots back. Nobody has ever come from six shots back in the final round to win. The biggest comeback victory in the final round of a U.S. Women’s Open is five shots. Six players have done it. Still, Wie believes she has a chance. She is relishing the fact that her new swing’s producing so many good shots. She’s relishing a return of confidence even with a giant deficit to erase on Sunday. Wie was checking leaderboards all day to see where Yang was. “I was definitely focusing a little bit on it,” Wie said. “I knew I had to post a low number, which is a little frustrating.” Frustrating because Wie got to within five on the front nine but made bogeys at the eighth and ninth holes to slow her early charge. Wie made six birdies and four bogeys on the day. She hit 10 of 14 fairways, her best effort of the week. She also hit 14 greens in regulation, most she has hit this week. “Those easy bogeys were a little bit frustrating,” Wie said. “I felt like the birdies came today . . . You can't really be making bogeys out here. I'm grateful that I have an opportunity, I have a chance. So I'm going to try to do as much as I can with it.” Wie was diagnosed with bursitis in her left hip after withdrawing from the Kingsmill Championship two months ago. She’s also dealing with related pain in her left knee and left ankle. She has had a cortisone shot and two platelet-rich plasma injections since the diagnosis. She also started overhauling her swing six weeks ago, narrowing her stance to ease the stress her former swing was putting on her lower left body. Wie could be seen punching her left hip with a fist at one point on the back nine. “I just feel like there’s a knot in it sometimes,” Wie said. The steep climbs on the hills at Lancaster haven’t helped her. “I've kind of embraced it,” Wie said. “I've played with the pain for a while. I know what to expect. Nothing is unexpected. I'm good to go for tomorrow.” Link to Article:www.golfchannel.com/news/golf-central-blog/six-shots-behind-wie-isnt-conceding-defeat/ Michelle Wie (-2) battles through hip injury at U.S. Women's Open Link to Michelle Wie (Highlights) shoots 2-under, tied for fifthwww.youtube.com/watch?v=NqhGiXAONzA

Wie finishes strong, but hip pain still lingersBy Randall Mell  LANCASTER, Pa. – Michelle Wie tried to mount an early run Sunday to defend her U.S. Women’s Open title, but she fell short despite an admirable finish with her ailing left hip and leg appearing to worsen. Wie sent a jolt through Lancaster Country Club driving the short par-4 16th hole, rattling her tee shot off the flagstick. She eagled the 235-yard hole and then birdied the last to shoot even-par 70, but she was limping hard on her way home. “I’m just happy the round is over,” Wie said. “It was a tough one today. It was definitely one of the toughest rounds I’ve ever played.” Wie was diagnosed with bursitis in her left hip seven weeks ago. She’s also struggling with pain in her left knee and left ankle, joints that have endured wear and tear as shock absorbers of her tightly wound swing. She has undergone one cortisone shot and two platelet-rich-plasma injects since the bursitis diagnosis. Doctors have told her the inflammation in her hip needs rest, but she has pushed through this major championship season. “At this point, I think I have to look into it further,” Wie said. “It was getting a lot better, and it just kind of went backwards this week. I just want to have another look at it, see what my game plan is moving forward. I made it through today. If it wasn't for the crowds and the fans today, it definitely would have been tough, but they really pushed me forward and I'm really grateful for that.” Link to Article:www.golfchannel.com/news/golf-central-blog/wie-finishes-strong-hip-pain-still-lingers/
