Annika SÃ¶renstam is a retired Swedish professional golfer whose achievements rank her as one of the most successful female golfers in history. Before stepping away from competitive golf at the end of the 2008 season, she won 90 international tournaments as a professional, making her the female golfer with the most wins to her name. She has won 72 official LPGA tournaments including ten majors and 18 other tournaments internationally, and she tops the LPGA's career money list with earnings of over $22 millionâ€”over $8 million ahead of her nearest rival. Since 2006, SÃ¶renstam has held dual American and Swedish citizenship.

Representing Europe in the Solheim Cup on eight occasions between 1994 and 2007, SÃ¶renstam was the event's all-time leading points earner until her record was surpassed by England's Laura Davies during the 2011 Solheim Cup.
