Sorenstam Bogeys Marriage, Files for Divorce

Annika Sorenstam is filing for divorce from her husband of eight years, David Esch. So much for retiring early to raise a family…

SorenstamAP news sources are reporting that LPGA superstar Annika Sorenstam has filed for divorce from David Esch, her husband of eight years.

“I want to confirm that I have filed for divorce,” Sorenstam said in a statement. “We are working toward an amicable resolution and we appreciate the media’s respect for our privacy. I wish David nothing but the best for the future.” In other words, bug off.

The divorce was filed February 4 in Circuit Court of Orange County. The suit is sealed and no other information is available.

Sorenstam, who has talked in the past about retiring early to start a family, is at this moment formulating a new plan. Will she stay on tour long enough to break Kathy Whitworth’s record of 88 career LPGA victories? We don’t know. Annika currently has 56.

Said David Esch about Annika, “that’s the problem with driven women… sometimes they drive right over you.” Okay, so he didn’t really say that. But it would have been funny if he had. More at pga.com.
