Michelle Wie Takes The ‘Ice Bucket Challenge’

by STEVE HAN

It’s the weirdest fad (granted, for a good cause) that developed in recent months in the sports world. The ice bucket challenge requires participants to dump a bucket of ice water over their heads. On top of doing that, the person also donates $50 to the Kay Yow Fund before nominating three other athletes to take part in the campaign. The Kay Yow Fund helps support scientific research and related programs focused on women’s cancers.

For athletes who’d rather keep their heads warm and dry, they can choose to donate $250 instead.

LPGA pro Michelle Wie, who recently won the U.S. Women’s Open, was among the latest athletes to accept the challenge. Here’s the video.
