Young Golfer’s Big Swing
Morgan Pressel made headlines again this year when she emerged victorious in a match up against Annika Sorenstam at the Solheim Cup, the Ladies Professional Golf Association’s prestigious team event, held in Sweden last week.
Hall of Famer Sorenstam is Sweden’s best female professional golfer. Back in April, 19-year-old Pressel became the youngest person ever to win a major tournament at the Nabisco Championship.
Pressel, who was raised Jewish in Florida, is the niece of world-famous tennis player Aaron Krickstein.
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we need 500 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
