Sorenstam closes in on Wright

Annika Sorenstam's 10th major title not only tied her with Tiger Woods, it separated her a bit from Karrie Webb as the player of her generation and brought her closer to Mickey Wright as the woman golfer of all generations.

Pat Hurst's near miss pulled her into the ultimate playday (top 54 players), knocking out Jody Anschutz. At age 16, with her already long list of near misses, Michelle Wie is No. 64.
