A rough last 9 holes caused Michelle Wie to give up the lead, and win, of the Northwest Arkansas Championship. Yani Tseng shot a blistering round of 65 to card her 3rd win this year on the LPGA tour. Tsent birdied 4 of 5 holes on the back nine, holding on to finish 13 under par – one shot better than Michelle.

It would have be Michelle’s 2nd win in a row, coming off her win a few weeks ago in Canada. Although it may be a disappointing finish for Michelle, her play as of late has been stellar, and is she keeps playing as she has in the last two tournaments, there will be many more wins on the horizon for her.

Michelle Wie sits on top of the leaderboard after shooting a blistering 64 in the 3rd round of the P&G Northwest Arkansas Championship. She got off to one of the greatest starts ever in an LPGA event when she carded an amazing 28 on the first 9 holes. She now holds a 3 short lead, sitting at 4 under for the tournament.

Wie, who is ranked at #7 in the world, will have won her 2nd tournament in a row if she can hold on throughout Sunday’s round.

It has taken all of 5 years, but Michelle Wie is beginning to show the success that she deserves. Wie is on a tear at the P&G NW Arkansas Championship, shooting an amazing 28 on the first 9 of her round today. Michelle sits on top of the leader board now at 10 under par – 8 under par today alone. If she can hold on and continue to play like this, she will easily wrap up her 2nd win of the year. More on Michelle’s round later.
