Michelle Wie will be making her 2008 professional debut in Hawaii for the 5th consecutive year, but this year it will be amongst her peers as a sponsor’s exemption in The Fields Open at Ko’olina Golf Club on Oahu.

In 2007 Michelle opened her season at the PGA Tour’s Sony Open at Waialae Country Club, where she missed the cut due to a nagging wrist injury. One-year older and fully healed, Michelle hopes to put the disastrous 2007 season behind her with the help of coaching guru David Leadbetter. It’s been reported Michelle has been concentrating very hard on both her studies as a freshman at Standford as well as restructuring her golf game and rebuilding that confidence she once exuded. The final change Camp-Wie made for this 2008 season is the declining all PGA Tour sponsors and/or tournament invites and exemptions, instead concentrating solely on the women’s LPGA tournaments.

Best of luck in this 2008 campaign as it appears, to the untrained eye, you’ve made the correct off-course decisions to put yourself in a better position for the future.
