Wie won't play in next week's LPGA event

Advertiser Staff

A spokesman for Michelle Wie said she does not expect to play in the LPGA's Ginn Open next week.

There were reports that Wie would make her 2007 LPGA debut at the Ginn.

Wie, in her final semester at Punahou, has not played since Sony Open in January. She missed last week's Kraft Nabisco, a tournament in which she has played in the previous four years.

She is continuing to rehab her injured left wrist, hurt when she broke a fall the first week of February. Her recovery was initially expected to take four to six weeks.

She played the Sony Open with her right wrist wrapped after injuring it in October when she hit a shot off a cart path.
