Alexandra O’Laughlin, a golf and travel correspondent at Golf Channel, has been a popular host among the sport’s followers. She recently tweeted a picture of herself laying on a bed wearing protective boots, which could likely mean a ruptured Achilles injury.

“Oh man, this is like a prison sentence for a golfer,” O’Laughlin wrote alongside her picture, which saddened the golf community, including Sorenstam. The latter commented “Oh no!” on the tweet to show solidarity with the TV host.

How did Sorenstam fare during her playing days on the Tour?

Despite the injuries she faced in her career, Sorenstam achieved ground-breaking feats on the tour. She turned professional in 1992 and began playing on the Ladies European Tour (LET), formerly known as the WPGET.

Sorenstam made an instant impact in Europe after being named the 1993 Ladies European Tour Rookie of the Year. She won her first professional title the following year, followed by a breakout 1995 season on the LPGA Tour, where she secured her first victory at the U.S. Women’s Open.

It was the same year when Sorenstam finished as the first player to top both the European and LPGA Tour money lists in the same season. It truly rocketed her status as one of golf’s most talented players, which the world ultimately saw in a decade filled with dominance.

Sorenstam eventually stepped away from the game in 2008. By that time, she had accumulated a record-breaking 97 professional titles, which included ten major championships.
