Janice Moodie and Michelle Wie fail
to qualify for US Women's Open
Michelle Wie and Janice Moodie may not have much in common but they suffered the same fate on Monday - they failed to qualify to play in the US Women's Open.
Janice shot two par 72s for 144 and was eliminated in a nine-way play-off for the last seven places on that mark, just missing out on the 30 players who advanced from the sectional qualifying event at Woodmoney Country Club, Rockville in the state of Maryland.
Michelle did not get as close as the Scot to qualifying. She shot 71 and 74 for 145, one stroke outside gettinig into the play-off. The 19-year-old from Hawaii had played in every US Women's Open since she was 13.
Also failing to qualify were Natalie Gulbis and 18-year-old rookie Vicky Hurst.
Becky Morgan from Wales made it comfortably on 138 (67-71). So too did England's twin Johanna (Head) Mundy, although she too had a pair of 72s for 144.
