ORLANDO, Fla. -- In a year without victories on the golf course, Annika Sorenstam had plenty of reason to celebrate Saturday when she announced she is getting married.
"What a lovely surprise," Sorenstam said. "I'm as happy as I can be."
Sorenstam said Mike McGee, her boyfriend of two years, popped the question Saturday morning at their home in Orlando, Fla. They have not set a date.
It will be the second marriage for the 36-year-old Swede, who filed for divorce from David Esch in February 2005. She began seeing McGee, a former sports agent and son of golfer Jerry McGee, later that summer. McGee now works as managing director of the "Annika" business brand, which includes clothing, golf course design and a golf academy.
Sorenstam lost her No. 1 ranking to Lorena Ochoa earlier this year and has failed to win on the LPGA Tour for the first time since her rookie season. She missed two months in the spring with back and neck injuries.
Thasssssss............not very nice...now I've got a mental image that im not sure how to deal with.

no no, not meant as any slight to Annika but rather we wouldn't want any of those type scandals affecting women's golf.
I would imagine though with all the newer attractive young ladies coming on tour that sooner or later one of them will do the sans clothes spread. Seems inevitible.
