Michelle Wie West missed the cut at the 2026 U.S. Women's Open at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, California, after posting rounds of 75 and 74 for a seven-over-par total. Wie West, the 2014 U.S. Women's Open champion, entered on a sponsor's exemption in her return to major championship golf after stepping away from the professional tour in 2022 due to injuries and personal health issues. Her first-round 75 included two birdies against six bogeys; in the second round she made three birdies through the first ten holes before faltering with late bogeys that ended any realistic chance of advancing. After completing the round Friday, Wie West told reporters she would have loved to make the cut but said it was a bonus to compete at Riviera and play another U.S. Open. The return attracted considerable attention given the symbolic weight of a former champion competing at one of the tour's most storied venues. A majority of the Predict Six community โ 61 percent โ expected Wie West to make the cut; she did not.
