Tseng out after missing pro-am

DEFENDING champion and formerly top-ranked Tseng Yani was dropped from the Kia Classic in Carlsbad, California, after missing her 9:10am pro-am tee time on Wednesday.

"I'm embarrassed to admit that I wasn't feeling well last night and accidentally overslept and missed my tee time for the pro-am this morning," Tseng of Chinese Taipei said in a statement. "I was extremely excited to compete this week to defend my title at the Kia Classic and to try to regain the No. 1 spot. This was an unfortunate mistake and I want to apologize to Kia, my sponsors and all fans." On Sunday, Stacy Lewis won the Founders Cup in Phoenix to end Tseng's 109-week run at No. 1.
