How to be hit golf balls, model clothes and sign autographs: Michelle Wie is back in style.


How to be hit golf balls, model clothes and sign autographs: Michelle Wie is back in style.

Wie returns in style after injury: 17-year-old Michelle Wie, appeared at the Roger Dunn Golf Shop, promoting Nike...

Michelle Wie, 17, appeared at the Roger Dunn Golf Shop, promoting Nike apparel while offering driving and putting demonstrations to fans.

There was even a miniature modeling ramp for her to do a fashion show.

"It's the first time I've done anything like this, and so far everyone's been treating me really nicely, and it's been a fun day," Wie said.

If there was any pain left from a nagging wrist injury, she didn't show it while she cranked some drives and offered golf tips, reporters say.

Judging by the shredded black canvas that absorbed her thunderous drives at point-blank range, Michelle Wie's comeback effort is in full swing.

"Yeah, I've never hit a shot in a pro shop before, but I guess you can tee off anywhere," Michelle said with a laugh. "But it's a lot of fun. It's different; it's not like any day playing on the golf course. Not a lot of people will see me hit a ball in a pro shop."

She'll be back on a golf course on May 31, as she's previously scheduled the LPGA's Ginn Tribute in South Carolina as her comeback event.

For fans closer to home, Wie will also host a similar demonstration today at 1 p.m. at NikeTown in Waikiki, along with PGA club professionals Ed Kageyama and Scott Bridges.

One thing she would reflect on was her last day of school as a Punahou senior, on Friday. But she will miss the upcoming Buffanblu graduation ceremony.

"I'm done with high school," Wie said with a laugh. "I'm so over it. But I went to prom. Prom was a lot of fun. After school yesterday it was very emotional, and stuff like that. They made me a slide show, all the memories we had together, that was really sweet."
