Kraft Nabisco or Safeway International?
No surprise here, Kraft Nabisco wants Michelle Wie.
“I’ve been told they’re going to work to get her in,” said her agent, Ross Berlin.
… The rest of Wie’s schedule might not be so simple to figure out.
She is allowed six LPGA Tour exemptions - that doesn’t include the U.S. Women’s Open or the Women’s British Open - which could turn into a sweepstakes because of Wie’s popularity.
“We have close relationships with a lot of sponsors that have helped her before,” said her father, B.J. Wie. “It will be a tough decision. Her school schedule comes first, but sometimes we will feel obligated. She only has six choices.”
One casualty could be the Safeway International, which will be played March 16-19 and is the week before Wie goes on spring break. The week after her break is the Kraft Nabisco.
Wie doesn’t plan on joining the LPGA Tour until she is 18.
