Ochoa gets own Barbie for International Women's Day

Plenty of professional golfers have their own bobblehead, but they've got nothing on Lorena Ochoa, who is getting her very own Barbie in honor of International Women's Day on March 8th.

Ochoa, who won 27 times on the LPGA tour including two majors before retiring in 2010, is still very active in charity work, continuing to run the Lorena Ochoa Foundation and the Lorena Ochoa Invitational long after leaving the professional ranks.

The 36-year-old World Golf Hall of Famer was included in the iconic doll maker's "Inspiring Women" line, made up of 17 historical and modern-day role models including filmmaker Patty Jenkins, Olympic champion snowboarder Chloe Kim, aviator Amelia Earhart and conservationist Bindi Irwin.
