Sorenstam rolls to 60th LPGA win by 10 strokes

STOCKBRIDGE, Ga. (AP) -- Annika Sorenstam made it to the first tee on time, which was all she really needed to do.
The final round of the Chick-fil-A Charity Championship was nothing more than a victory lap.
Bouncing back from her first loss of the year with one of her most dominating performances, Sorenstam blew away the field by 10 strokes Sunday for career win No. 60.
She came into the day with a 10-shot lead. She finished that way with a bogey-free 67 at Eagle's Landing Country Club south of Atlanta.
``Obviously, I was very happy with the situation after three rounds. I'm teeing off with a 10-shot lead,'' Sorenstam said. ``But you don't want to get too overly excited because you still have to play.''
No problem. No one got closer than nine shots the entire day.
``We were playing a different tournament,'' said runner-up Candie Kung, who closed with a 65 that was good enough to win the B-Flight. ``She's up there in her own little world.''
Sorenstam finished with a 23-under 265, matching the biggest 72-hole win of her career.
When the final putt dropped -- a 3-footer for birdie at No. 18 -- she pumped her fist, waved to the crowd and hugged her caddie.
``To finish the way I started and get win No. 60, it was a great Sunday,'' Sorenstam said. ``I felt like I did it with style.''
She fell just short of her most dominating performance -- an 11-stroke victory at the 54-hole Kellogg-Keebler Classic in 2002.
More important, the 34-year-old Swede tied Patty Berg for third place on the LPGA Tour's career victory list and can now take aim at the only two players to win more -- Kathy Whitworth (88) and Mickey Wright (82).
``Here I am with 60,'' Sorenstam said. ``I have to pinch myself to believe it's real.''
Actually it's 72, if you count 12 international wins that aren't part of her official LPGA stats.
And how about these numbers for the week? Sorenstam hit the fairway with 82 percent of her drives, reached the green in regulation 76 percent of the time and needed only 108 putts -- an average of 27 per day.
``She's got everything,'' Kung said.
Sorenstam, who sets goals for everything, said Whitworth's record has never been on the radar. The immediate goal is the Grand Slam -- Sorenstam already won the first major of the year -- but it might be time to add something else to the list.
``I never felt like 88 wins was ever in my reach,'' she said. ``I still feel the same way. Then again, I'm very surprised that I reached 60 wins in my 11th year on the tour.''
The resounding victory came just a week after Sorenstam failed in her bid to break Nancy Lopez's record of five straight wins. Cristie Kerr won at Kingsmill, while Sorenstam finished 10 strokes back in a tie for 12th and a share of Lopez's record.
Well, it didn't take long to get a new winning streak started.
``I think I made her mad last week when I beat her by 10 shots,'' said Kerr, who took third by finishing 11 shots behind Sorenstam. ``She wanted to blow the field away, and she did.''
At the rate this is going, it would take only a few more years to knock off Wright and Whitworth. Sorenstam has won six of her last seven tournaments, eight of the past 11 and 37 overall since the start of 2001, the year she reclaimed her place as the world's top-ranked player from Karrie Webb.
With four wins already in 2005, Sorenstam is poised for her greatest season ever. She had 11 victories three years ago.
Sorenstam played the first 39 holes of the tournament without a bogey. She had three on Saturday, but bounced back with nothing but birdies and pars in the final round.
On a course dampened by overnight rain after three sunny, humid days, Sorenstam got off to a typical start. She took advantage of a drive that was about 45 yards longer than her two playing partners, rolling in a 12-foot birdie putt.
Sorenstam didn't overpower the par-5s like she did the first three days, and her putter wasn't quite as precise. But there were holes for the taking such as the seventh and 14th -- short par-4s that she nearly reached off the tee. Both times, she chipped close to the flag and sank birdie putts.
There were a few moments of frustration. When a 10-footer slid by the edge of the cup at No. 9, Sorenstam buckled over in disgust.
Not to worry -- the only challenger this day was history.
The mammoth 54-hole lead gave Sorenstam a shot at the biggest win in LPGA Tour history. Cindy Mackey had a 14-stroke runaway at the 1986 MasterCard International Pro-Am.
The rest of the stellar field -- 92 of the top 100 money winners from last year -- kept Sorenstam from reaching that mark, about the only thing that went their way.
All but five other players were at least 15 shots behind. A.J. Eathorne and Bernadette Luse, tied for last among those making the cut, finished a staggering 33 strokes back.
``Of course, (Mackey's) record would have been nice to do,'' Sorenstam said. ``But a win is a win.''
Divots
Sorenstam became the first two-time winner of the Atlanta-area tournament. She also won in 2001, though that victory was much tougher; she defeated fellow Swede Sophie Gustafson in a playoff. ... Sorenstam easily beat the previous tournament scoring record in relation to par -- Se Ri Pak's 16-under 200 in 2003, the last year of the three-round format. ... Defending champion Jennifer Rosales tied for 31st, 20 shots behind the winner. ... This was the final year of Chick-fil-A's title sponsorship. ... Laura Davies, who led after the first round, broke 70 three times and finished in a tie for seventh at 8-under. Her only stumble was a second-round 76.
