Gearing up for the U.S. Women’s Open in North Carolina, Michelle Wie speaks with Rhonda Glenn of the U.S. Golf Association about life in the spotlight, her wrist injury (which caused her to drop out of a tournament earlier this month) and being an ethnic role model.

On that last point, Wie says, “When I play, I don’t think about that stuff. But I hope by me playing golf I can positively influence other people’s lives and hopefully get them to play golf, pick up the golf club and experience the same happiness and joy when I play golf.”
