Sorenstam Wins U.S. Women's Open

It's been a long time coming, but Annika Sorenstam won the U.S. Women's Open on Monday in an 18-hold playoff against Pat Hurst. It's been nearly a decade since her last major championship. Yesterday, Sorenstam proved she is still the best women's golfer in the game.

Another story line at the Open tournament was Michelle Wie, who finished in a three-way tie for second. Wie has received a lot of criticism (especially from men) for her attempts to enter men's tournaments. But I think what she is trying to do is pretty remarkable -- not because she's female, but because she is 16 years old. Her play during this weekend's Women's Open proved that she is a capable competitor in her own right.
