LPGA and World Golf Hall of Famer Annika Sorenstam has committed to play in the inaugural US$2.6 million Ginn Tribute Hosted by ANNIKA to be held next week at RiverTowne Country Club in Charleston, S.C., May 31-June 3 2007.

“Annika’s rehabilitation has progressed well and she looks forward to resuming competitive play next week in the Ginn Tribute Hosted by ANNIKA,” said Sorenstam’s agent, Mark Steinberg of IMG.

Annika will be hosting the top LPGA stars next week in her event including Lorena Ochoa, Suzann Pettersen, Brittany Lincicome, Morgan Pressel, Paula Creamer, Juli Inkster and sponsor exemptions Michelle Wie and MacKinzie Kline. The pro-am will be played Wednesday and the 72-hole championship begins on Thursday and concludes on Sunday.

Sorenstam, who last competed in the Kraft Nabisco Championship on April 1, withdrew from the Ginn Open on April 11th. She was diagnosed with a disc injury.
