Annika didnt have any wins last year except at the very end of the season on the LPGA tour which is very rare. She had a neck injury for a long while which, in my opinion, was the one of the main things holding her back.

How do you think she will perform this year?

If you think she will win this year, how many times?

She won on the LET towards the end of the year in Dubai. This seems a good sign that she's coming back soon.
But I don't really follow women's golf as much as I should. It's just so easy to follow the three main men's tours since they're on the same website. I need to add LPGA's site to my bookmark toolbar.

Hopefully she can turn it around again as the last few years have really brought women's golf into the foreground, but with upcomers such as Ochoa, Gulbis, Creamer, and such it should continue to grow whether Annika comes back to form or not.

What I remember the most about Annika at her most dominant is her eerily precise iron shots. The often reminded me of Tiger's iron shots in that she always seemed to hit them to the perfect position on the green.

I think that she still has wins left in her. And one more major.

I'm looking forward to seeing a healthy Annika in 2008. How great would it be if she and Ochoa go head to head this year?

Her best is behind her. Ochoa will be the one to catch from now on, I just dont see Anika being able to play on her level again. She might win a few times a year but she's got all these young players lighting it up around her and it seems like she is intimidated.. we'll see though.

Annika may have played her best golf already, but remember she was coming back from a pretty major neck injury last season. Ochoa is a great player and there is no reason to expect her to fall back to the pack. I will have to wait and see how Annika plays at the start of the season, but I would expect her to challenge for the top spot again. She keeps herself in great shape and is so consistent that I have little reason to doubt her if she is healthy. Of course that is a big if when you are talking about problems with the spine.

I agree that Annika probably won't be able to play at the level she used to, but I really doubt she is intimidated by the younger players. If anything, I think she will be more determined to prove she can still win.

Funny you say that after she fires a 67 to tie for the lead in the 2nd round.. not much of a prediction then, is it? I still stick by my words, maybe 3 wins a year but she wont dominate like in years past.. as long as Ochoa's in the field.

    • Day 521 - 2026-03-06 Got some good work in for 15 minutes or so with someone overseeing. Downswing work.
    • Day 201 3-6 Wider backswing trying to blend it all together for a full swing. Not looking good yet. 
    • Day 74 - 2026-03-06 Backswing work out back at the net. Slow.
    • Day 101: did a stack session. Worked on hands down in the mirror during breaks. 
    • Got told off yesterday for doing full swings and full speed swings so went to the range this lunchtime and did some slow speed stuff and freezers. A few videos from my session.    First few are DTL then some FO This one is of me looking at the club on the way back. I think I get my arms lifting all the way back, not that you’d know because YouTube keeps glitching on me.    Second one is two slow backswings. This glitches the first one but the glitch looks like a pretty good position so I’ll live. Second one works. Then another swing back and hit. When I’m not watching or really focusing on it it seems that my upper arm doesn’t lift at first, rather stays roughly where it is and I add the lift at the end so the club comes a bit more inside. I think that’s what I’m going to focus on. This one glitches a bit too but it’s really just pausing. This shows the club coming a bit more inside but not as laid off at the top Then a couple of face on ones And lastly one smoothie and one freezer at normal speed  Quite happy with how this went. I can see my arms are better when I take it slower. Also while I’m still pitching my arms out it doesn’t seem to be as extreme as yesterday. Light at the end of the tunnel 🙂
