"Golf has taught me a lot about life, about making decisions," Sorenstam said. "I want to help the game, use the game and be part of the game. I'm going to be very active but not competing. My sponsors are sticking by me and are very supportive. There are a lot of things I can do with my knowledge and my excitement and energy -- [for example] golf in the Olympics, who knows what I can do there?"
Sorenstam rose to leave, moving toward the waiting Mike McGee, whom she will marry in January, then paused. "It's been worth every second," she said. "From the outside you see the glamorous part, but you beat your body up week after week and I just think I am at a good part in my life, and I'm stepping away from competition on my terms. This is exactly what I want."
