The Swede, who retired in 2008 and is third on
the all-time list with 72 LPGA titles, said she decided to play
at the Feb. 25-28 Gainbridge LPGA event as part of her
preparations for the U.S. Senior Women's Open.
"I have no other plans (to play at other events)," said the
50-year-old.
"I've been away for 13 years. I don't have the hunger that I
did. I'm just excited to be playing and swinging the club. When
you get older you have some other priorities in your life and
mine is to be a mother and a wife and businesswoman.
"LPGA has a huge part in my life ... but that's not why I'm
here, to create more.
"When I do play later in the summer I want to feel like I can
compete. To do that, you have to get back inside the ropes."
