Wie is upstaged by teenager Fujikawa

History finally arrived at the Sony Open in Honolulu when a teenager from Hawaii made the cut. But it wasn’t Michelle Wie.

Tadd Fujikawa, a 5-foot-1 sophomore who turned 16 on Monday, stole the show with an eagle on the last hole for a four-under-par 66 on Friday, making him the youngest player in 50 years to make the cut on the PGA Tour.

He walked up to the 18th green to a standing ovation at Waialae Country Club, then made a 15-foot eagle putt.

Wie was wrapping up her news conference after again struggling off the tee on her way to a 76. She missed the cut for the fourth consecutive time at the Sony Open, this time by 14 shots.

Paul Goydos (63) and Luke Donald (66) shared the lead at 11-under 129, but attention shifted to Fujikawa, who was tied for 25th at three-under 137.

The youngest player to qualify for the weekend on the PGA Tour was Bob Panasik at the 1957 Canadian Open when he was 15 years, eight months. Ty Tryon was 16 years, nine months when he made the cut in the 2001 Honda Classic.

The Texas Rangers apologized and paid an undisclosed amount of money to a woman whose nose was broken during a brawl between players and fans at the Oakland Coliseum more than two years ago.

During the Sept. 13, 2004, fight by the Rangers bullpen, reliever Frank Francisco threw a folding chair into the stands. It broke the nose of Jennifer Bueno, whose husband, Craig, was among the hecklers at the game against the Oakland A’s.

Bueno sued Francisco, Doug Brocail, Carlos Almanzar and the Rangers in April 2005. The Rangers then sued Craig Bueno. The suits were dismissed with the settlement.

MRI test on Angels’ Morales is normal

An MRI test on the left knee of Angels first baseman Kendry Morales, who was injured before a winter league game in the Dominican Republic on Tuesday, was normal, General Manager Bill Stoneman said.

After conferring with Morales’ Dominican manager, Arturo Defreites, Stoneman was satisfied with the team’s handling of Morales, who sat out this week but could return to finish out the Dominican playoffs.

“He won’t play if they think there could be some damage,” Stoneman said. “I know Arturo, and I really trust the guy.”
