Wie Moves into Second at Lorena Ochoa Invitational – Day 2

Hawaii's own Michelle Wie moves up leader board

Michelle Wie started the day at the Lorena Ochoa Invitational Golf Tournament in 10^th place, but moved up the leader board by firing a sizzling 66.

Wie, 20 years old and a graduate of Punahou High School, shot five birdies and an eagle to move  into a second place tie with Paula Creamer in day two of the four day tournament from Guadalajara, Mexico.

On the par three, 17^th hole, Wie had a six foot putt to make par, but her shot sat on the lip of the cup to blemish her near perfect round.

On the 18^th hole Wie hooked her ball into the sponsor’s tent and looked to be falling back further on the leader board.  On her third shot on the par 5, 18^th, Wie dropped the ball to within five feet of the hole to finish the round with birdie.

Leader, Ji-yai Shin from South Korea, continued to lead after shooting a second round 66 and went  11 under taking  a three shot lead over Wie  and Creamer going into day three tomorrow.
