For the second consecutive day, Michelle Wie West bogeyed her opening hole at the ANA Inspiration. But unlike on Thursday, Friday’s round never got better.
Wie West followed a first-round 70 with a 79 on Day 2 at Mission Hills to miss the cut in her second consecutive start since returning to the LPGA Tour.
Wie West shot 81-74 at last week’s Kia Classic, her first start on tour since June 2019, because of injury and giving birth to her first child. She got off to a promising start in Rancho Mirage, making four birdies and two bogeys, and was just four off the 18-hole lead.
