Young Golfer’s Big Swing
Published September 19, 2007, issue of September 21, 2007.
Morgan Pressel made headlines again this year when she emerged victorious in a match up against Annika Sorenstam at the Solheim Cup, the Ladies Professional Golf Association’s prestigious team event, held in Sweden last week.
Hall of Famer Sorenstam is Sweden’s best female professional golfer. Back in April, 19-year-old Pressel became the youngest person ever to win a major tournament at the Nabisco Championship.
Pressel, who was raised Jewish in Florida, is the niece of world-famous tennis player Aaron Krickstein.

Is that all you've got to say? Morgan is brilliant. I think the least you can do is write/print an article about her remarkable talent on the golf course. Maybe something like a mini biography. I watch her on television whenever I can. She is just one great athlete. I am 84 yrs old and still play golf twice a week.
