Wie says injured wrists will never be fully healed

Michelle Wie is healthier, stronger and determined to succeed but concedes her injured wrists will never be the same.

“I just accepted the fact that it’s never going to be 100% ever again. After a major injury last year, it’s never going to be the way it was before,” she said Tuesday as she prepared for the LPGA Tour’s Fields Open, which begins Thursday at Kapolei, Hawaii.

Wie, 18, is starting the season on her home island of Oahu for the fifth year in a row on a sponsor’s exemption. This time, she’s playing against women.

She injured both wrists last year but kept playing and made only three cuts. In nine starts, she withdrew twice and broke par only twice in 19 rounds against women.

Lawmaker: Boycott

opening ceremony

A Dutch lawmaker wants an international boycott of the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics to protest China’s human rights record.

Joel Voordewind, a member of the Christian Union party, would like governments around the world to support the boycott and lean on sponsors to use their financial clout with Beijing.

“It is possible to take part in the games but skip the party beforehand,” he said. “Such a ceremony is only intended to glorify the host, China.”
