The partial contact wafer retaining ring apparatus is disclosed. For example, one disclosed embodiment provides a wafer retaining ring comprising a ring for retaining the wafer, the ring having an inner diameter surface configured to restrict lateral wafer motion, and at least one interface surface configured to interface with a polishing surface. The interface surface comprises a recessed section adjacent to the ring inner diameter, configured to preclude contact between the recessed section and the polishing surface.
