5. Pettersen’s storybook ending
Give birth, play three times in 18 months, win the Solheim Cup. That’s what Suzann Pettersen, a two-time major champion and 15-time winner on the LPGA Tour, did. She gave birth to son, Hunter, Aug. 9, 2018, and didn’t play again for a year. After three starts – two missed cuts and a tie for 59th – she went 2-1-0 in the 2019 Solheim Cup, capping her week with a Cup-winning birdie putt from 7 feet on the final hole on the final day of the final match on the course. And then Pettersen promptly retired.
