Yahoo Summary
SPRINGFIELD, Ill. - Michelle Wie finished the third round of the State Farm Classic alone in second on Saturday - that is, if she hadn't already been disqualified.
Wie failed to sign her scorecard after Friday's second round. She showed up Saturday and shot 5-under 67 to finish alone in second at 17 under, one stroke back of Yani Tseng. That's when Wie learned of the LPGA's ruling.
The 18-year-old Wie, who appeared to have been crying, told reporters she made a mistake.
"I don't know how it happened," she said.
Wie, who is playing a part-time schedule while attending Stanford, was having by far her best tournament of the year. She opened with a 5-under 67 and followed with rounds of 65 and 67 - though the last two won't count.

Such a shame, just because of a score card. It's that one stupid mistake you regret the rest of your life.

it was a stupid mistake on her part, she should have checked everything before she left the scoring area. but she still has a good chance of winning next week in France where she has been the runner up 2 of the past 3 years, and shes going there playing really good.
