In 1986, she won 3 of the 4 LPGA majors. Her career is still going

competition is tougher. |
| Anyway, according to todays L.A. Times, as some of the other posters
said, Annika has tied the official LPGA record at four. The others
with four consecutive wins are: Kathy Whitworth (1969), and Mickey
Wright, who accomplished it TWICE, once in 1962 and again in 1963. |

You see Nancy Lopez and Betsy King and Pat Bradley, and think you

--Annika Sorenstam (on her success in 1995, leading both the

| Besides Webb and Sorenstam, the tournament features 91 of the LPGAs
top 100 money leaders, as well as Hall of Famers and former champions
Betsy King (1985), Pat Bradley (1990) and Patty Sheehan (1993), who
holds the record for the best winning score in this tournament and is
the only member of that Hall-of-Fame trio among the top 50 money winners
this season with $50,370, good for 13th. |
