During the late 1990s and early 2000s, Annika Sörenstam dominated the world of golf. Before stepping away from the sport in 2008, Sörenstam had won 90 international tournaments — including 72 LPGA events — and 10 major championships. Sörenstam’s major victories included three Chevron Championships, three Women’s PGA Championships, three U.S. Women’s Opens and one Women’s British Open. The all-time great was named Player of the Year eight times and is the only woman to shoot a 59 in a professional tournament.
