PALM DESERT, CA (October 16, 2006) – The leading money winner shoots a smooth seven-under 65 to win the Samsung World Championship in Palm Desert with a Sonartec Md hybrid. The champion trailed by three shots when play began on Sunday and came back to win by two over Annika Sorenstam. The victory was her 5th of the year, moving her a step closer to winning the honor of becoming the 2006 LPGA Tour player of the year. "We are so happy for her; what a great young lady," said Bob Gotfredson, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Sonartec Golf. "This record-setting champion has used our 21 degree Md hybrid with a UST iRod shaft in all five victories. The club is the same club that can be purchased in any golf retail store throughout the world. In this day and age where tour players are constantly tweaking their equipment, here comes the leading money winner with a Sonartec stock model. Now that’s a story," said Gotfredson.
