Quote of the Year
"Annika told me that world number one is the loneliest place on the earth,” said Taiwan’s Yani Tseng, referring to Annika Sorenstam, at the unveiling of an exhibit in Taipei that celebrated Tseng’s rise to the top to the pinnacle of the game. Despite getting off to a brilliant start in 2012 – she won three of the first five events – Tseng has since struggled with her game and, despite clinging to her ranking, her name has been conspicuously absent from leaderboards in recent months.
Winner: Yani Tseng
