WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- Annika Sorenstam's storied LPGA Tour career is about to end.

The 72-time tour winner shot a 3-over par 75 on Friday at the ADT Championship, making her 5 over through two rounds of the LPGA's season-ending event. The projected cut was 1 over, meaning it was virtually certain Sorenstam's week -- and career -- was done.

"I know it's over," Sorenstam said.

She announced six months ago she was leaving the tour at year's end to pursue business interests, get married and start a family. Sorenstam is still is No. 2 in the world rankings, but at 38 she says it's time for new challenges.
