After an opening-round 78 on Thursday, Michelle Wie withdrew from the Kingsmill LPGA Championship citing a hip injury.
Wie was among the bottom of the 144-player field at the Virginia resort, making six bogeys and a double bogey against just one birdie.
The reigning U.S. Women’s Open champion tweeted about her withdrawal.
Wie doesn’t have a top-10 finish on the LPGA Tour this season.
