Golf was considered a male-centric sport for decades, but a few female golfers brought gender equality to the sport through their sweat and hard work. One such LPGA GOAT is Annika Sorenstam. When it comes to the evolution of the sport, the 10-time Major Champion has been a shining light. However, golf was not the only primary factor in her life. She has never been hesitant about sharing what her family means to her and has been a pioneer when it comes to balancing her personal and professional lives.

However, the family of the PGA star was going through a really tough time. Her daughter, Ava Mcgee, had surgery scheduled for a torn ACL and meniscus. But with the blessings of all her fans, Ava’s surgery was a complete success, and fans just cannot stop sending her all the positivity in the world.
