WILLIAMSBURG, Va. -- Annika Sorenstam has made it three victories in her eight starts on the LPGA this year by taking the Michelob Ultra Championship in a runaway.

Sorenstam closed with a 5-under-par 66 for a seven-shot win over Christina Kim, Allison Fouch, Karen Stupples and Jeong Jang.

Sorenstam began the day with a three-stroke lead before carding four birdies in a five-hole stretch on the back nine. She finished 19-under while proving she can beat world's Number-1 Lorena Ochoa.

Ochoa finished 12 shots back with a 1-under 70.
