Annika Sorenstam shot a 2-over-par 74 in the opening round of the LPGA ADT Championship in West Palm Beach, Fla., good for a tie for 23rd in the 32-woman event, her final LPGA Tour appearance before "stepping away" from competitive golf. The field gets trimmed to 16 after play today, meaning Sorenstam has some work remaining just to reach the weekend. Otherwise, her tour career will come to an unceremonious end. She finished six shots behind leader Katherine Hull (68). "I was a little nervous. I feel like I'm playing good. I'm excited about the week," said Sorenstam, a four-time ADT winner. "But I'm telling you, nothing went my way today."

PGA Pebble Beach Invitational: John Cook shot a 10-under 62 to take a three-stroke lead over Brad Martin after the first round in Pebble Beach, Calif. Cook, 51, one of eight Champions Tour entrants in the tournament that features players from the four major tours, had 11 birdies and one bogey.
