What a shocker. At the age 0f 28 and not yet qualifying for the hall of fame, Lorena will be retiring. I think it's a pretty big lose for the LPGA, especiallybeing so soon after Annika retiring. She will hold a press conference on Friday to explain why she is retiring. I hope whatever it is, that she is very happy with her choice.

She seems to have lost the fire in the belly, and I don't discount the possibility that she has one in the oven, too. If she wants to spend her time being a mom & step-mom rather than a touring pro, good for her.

She was a real comet for a time. Retired at 28...that would have been nice.

A loss of more starpower for the LPGA. They really can't afford to lose interesting players like Lorena.

I would agree with the guess on the mommy thing. Hubby sure can afford to support her in they manner she has become accustom to.

Money is money , but the glory is hard to come by. She will miss the thrill of playing the Tour. She will be back....or not. :)
I have to admit that i have :P not watched more than five minutes of LPGA golf this year. I don't even watch the PGA golf that i have , so maticulously , recorded. If Tiger is not playing....who wants to watch .....sigh !!!! :P :P :twisted:

Hasn't even been out long enough to qualify for the HOF. I really wondered about the timing with a Mexican tournament coming up but she is going to play there, I see. Sohouldn't be a border crossing problem since she should have a private aeroMexico everywhere she goes.

She can't seem to play dead these days. This game will do that to you.
