2) She didn't qualify. She got a sponsor position.
67? She got lucky with 71. She won't do better than today.

Ref 2) don't know if you know this, but it's a PGA turnament ,not a LPGA turnament she's invited to play at.
About luck...don't think so..
"Not content conquering women's golf, the Hall of Fame player from Stockholm, Sweden, accepted a sponsor's exemption to this week's PGA TOUR event, the Bank of America Colonial, at storied Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth, Texas. Sorenstam's entry represents the first by a woman in a men's event since the legendary Babe Didrickson Zaharias qualified for three events in 1945.
The laconic Swede enjoyed one of the best seasons in LPGA history in 2002 with her 11 victories and record earnings of $2,863,904. With a single-season record scoring average of 68.70, Sorenstam won the most titles since LPGA Tour Hall of Famer Mickey Wright won 11 times in 1964 and earned her fifth Rolex Player of the Year and Vare Trophy awards. She set or tied 20 LPGA records in all. " source LPGA.com
