Only 38. Ochoa did the same thing at like 28. Both qualified for their HOF before retiring. I wonder if it was about life choices (biological clock) or they did all they wanted to do in the game, as measured by HOF entry.

So you can win a boatload of tournaments and not qualify? Odd. Seems like that would be the major factor.I saw this during the tv coverage yesterday. She was an big influence on Korean golfers.
on a side note Ochoa isn't qualified for the HOF because she doesn't have enough years on tour.

So a player can come in, destroy all comers for, say, 5 seasons, blow out a disc in her back, and not qualify? Seems a little stringent. I applaud the LPGA in their requirements, but it seems like a total win number should be able to trump the 10 year requirement.According to the requirements a player needs 10 years on tour, won a major, care trophy or Rolex player of the year and earn27 points. Ochoa only has 7-8 years on tour.

It's a weird thing to remember but she said she started the club back with her left hand. With all the one piece takeaway talk that just stood out to me. When I started playing she was a bad mofo. Hope she's retiring happy and on her terms.
