NAPLES, Fla. -- Instead of pulling away from the field, Sung Hyun Park went the other direction Saturday and let Michelle Wie and just about everyone else into the mix going into the final round of the season-ending CME Group Tour Championship.
Park still is in solid position in her bid to become the first rookie since Nancy Lopez in 1978 to sweep all the major awards. The 24-year-old from South Korea simply has more company that anyone imagined.
Wie, who missed six weeks after an emergency appendectomy, had a 6-under 66 and was tied for the lead with Kim Kaufman (64), Ariya Jutanugarn (67) and Suzann Pettersen (69) as she goes for her first victory since the 2014 U.
