Annika is Back on LPGA Tour, Just Not For Very Long
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Annika Sorenstam is back on the LPGA Tour, but not for long. The 50-year-old Swede is among the most dominant players in LPGA history. She retired at the end of 2008 and walked away from the game. But she's playing the Gainbridge LPGA this week at her home course of Lake Nona. Sorenstam says this is not a comeback. It's an appearance. She has no other plans to compete on the LPGA against women half her age. She does want to play the U.S. Senior Women's Open. Sorenstam says she has fond memories but she's not here to make more.
