Anna Nordqvist's surprise win at the LPGA Championship got me rethinking something I've believed for a long time: that NCAA success is not much of a predictor of LPGA success. For every Annika Sorenstam or Lorena Ochoa, who, after short adjustment periods, went on to LPGA greatness, it seems there are a couple of dozen players who rocked it in college but aren't able to make that adjustment to life...

Anna Nordqvist always makes an impression. She's a 6-foot blonde, after all, and from Sweden, no less. Now she has something in common with her idol, Annika Sorenstam, beyond just her country of origin and hair color. Now Anna is a major champion. Some might say she came out of nowhere to win the 2009 McDonalds LPGA Championship, but she really came out of a superb junior program in Sweden and college...

Sweden’s Anna Nordqvist showed poise well beyond her years on Sunday at the LPGA Championship, shooting a practically flawless round en route to a four-shot win for her first LPGA tournament win - and a major championship to boot. Despite a world ranking of 214 heading into the week, her swing and poise drew comparisons to her hero, Annika Sorenstam. One of the secrets in her bag may very well...

Names atop leader board aren't those you would expect Katherine Hull gets it. She understands the layman's perspective. She knows there are people watching the LPGA Championship who aren't rooting for players like her to win her first major. They want to see Michelle Wie or Natalie Gulbis or Paula Creamer in the mix, the tour's young and marketable stars who are expected to carry golf into the post-Annika...
