Anna Nordqvist’s fighting spirit earned her a third career major championship on Sunday.
Nordqvist fought her way back to the winner’s circle at Carnoustie Golf Links to capture the AIG Women’s Open. Her victory came after a four-year winless drought that tested her resolve to return to the top of the women’s game.
To become a champion again, Nordqvist relied on the same no-quit attitude that helped her both endure a three-year bout with mono and outlast a hail storm to win her second major.
“There was times I doubted if I ever would win again,” Nordqvit said.
