'I Thought It Would Be Fantastic To Win One Major' – Annika Sorenstam On Her Incredible Career, Her Love Of Links Golf And Her Dislike Of Putting

Annika Sorenstam.

Nobody has dominated the women's modern-day game like Annika Sorenstam did. The Swede finished her career with 10 Majors which were part of 72 LPGA Tour victories – to give us some idea of quite how incredible that is Karrie Webb (41) is the only player from the Swede's era to record half as many wins. 

Sorenstam would win the Player of the Year for five straight seasons, among eight in total, and if you wanted a stat to demonstrate quite how dominant she was then this is a good one – her 23.5% career-winning percentage (72 wins out of 307 LPGA Tour starts) is the highest of any golfer on the PGA or LPGA Tours, just ahead of Tiger Woods.
