Wie needs a miracle

Michelle Wie was next-to-last and in need of a miracle after an opening nine-over-par 79 at the US Tour’s Sony Open in Honolulu.

It left the 16-year-old 14 strokes behind leader Rory Sabbatini and requiring probably a 64 at worst to survive the halfway cut, her goal every since she first started playing against the men two years ago.
