Ammaccapane clashes with Wie

The 16-year veteran allegedly pushed Wie during their round together.
NORTH PLAINS, Ore. (AP) -- Danielle Ammaccapane allegedly pushed 13-year-old sensation Michelle Wie and later berated her over a breach of etiquette at the U.S. Women's Open, Wie and her father said Friday.
B.J. Wie, who caddies for his daughter, said the contact came on the 14th hole of Thursday's first round at Pumpkin Ridge. Wie played with Ammaccapane and Tracy Hanson.
The young golfer said Ammaccapane, a 16-year veteran on the LPGA Tour, was upset that Wie had walked in her line as she prepared to putt. Wie said she was trying to go behind Ammaccapane to get to her own putt.
The father claimed Ammaccapane bumped, pushed or brushed his daughter on the green.
In the scoring tent after the first round, Michelle Wie said Ammaccapane, 37, had words with her, although the teen wouldn't disclose what was said.
"I was really surprised, because I guess I've always played with really nice people," Wie said.
B.J. Wie would only say the exchange was "nasty," although he wasn't in the scoring tent at the time.
"She's young," B.J. Wie said of his daughter. "Danielle is 40, so Michelle is like a daughter. How can she treat a little girl like that?"
No comment
Ammaccapane, who has seven LPGA Tour victories and was playing in her 17th Open, wouldn't talk about the matter after her round Friday.
"I don't have any comments about playing, or etiquette or anything else," she said as she left the course. She and Wie did not speak or shake hands after the round.
Hanson also had no comment.
"I'm not going to answer anything about Michelle," she said.
