Michelle Wie signs up for US Open qualifier
Michelle Wie's name is on the list of a total of 8,584 entries for the 2006 US Open at Winged Foot in Mamaroneck, New York.
Michelle Wie, 16, will be in a local qualifier for the second major of the golf season in Hawaii on 15 May and if she does well there she goes through to a sectional qualifier in New Jersey, where she will attempt to become the first woman to make the USGA's premier event.
Michelle Wie tried to reach the US Open in 2005 but failed to get further than the local qualifier after she tied for sixth.
The American teenage golf sensation, however, has ruled out trying to qualify for golf's oldest major, the Open Championship.
In spite of rule changes, which now allow women to enter, Michelle Wie says there is no room in her schedule for an outing at Royal Liverpool.
