Annika retires
Talk about going out on top, Annika’s retirement comes as a complete surprise.
“Maybe it will be one of those head-fake retirements [like Michael's] or maybe she’s afraid of Lorena,” wondered my friend Rick Hall, who sent me the link minutes after it showed up on ESPN.com.
“Maybe,” I said, “or maybe she’s going to kick ass this year and raise a family,” making that her priority.
Who really knows? But, hey, when you’ve accomplished what she has - and made a comeback this year like she has - who cares? We have been able to see Tiger dominate, Annika dominate, and I think we’ll continue to see Lorena Ochoa dominate.
It’s been a golden era, and Annika’s helped treat us to something special.
