LPGA record

Sorenstam becomes first LPGA player to win five straight

GNN Desk card: Sorenstam becomes first LPGA player to win five straight

Annika Sorenstam kept winning, and at five tournaments in a row she reached a place no LPGA player had been.

The Oskaloosa Herald's Today in Sports column lists Sorenstam as the first player in LPGA history to win five straight tournaments.

No one before her had put five wins back to back on the LPGA Tour. The mark belongs to a single player, and it is a count that only comes from winning every time out over five events.

Five straight wins, a first in LPGA history.

Five straight, and the first name on that list is hers.
