Bring Tour‑Level Play Home: Annika Sörenstam’s Artificial Greens

“A lot of people know that I am passionate about my family and golf, but I am also passionate about Southwest Greens.” - Annika Sörenstam

Annika is a ten-time championship golfer and was inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 2003, earning her place among the true greats of the game. She’s also the only woman to shoot a competitive 59, proof that accuracy counts — in competition and at home. In early 2021, she earned the Presidential Medal of Freedom, marking her legacy both on and off the course.

HOW ANNIKA BROUGHT THE TOUR HOME

Annika’s backyard setup features an estimated 800 square feet of Golden Bear Putt GB177 in shade 301 — a surface known for its reliability and true roll. The entire backyard putting green covers approximately 1,200 square feet, complete with a bespoke sand bunker and specialized GB134 turf fringe for added realism. One of the most impressive parts? A dedicated tee box with 80 yards of play, giving Annika the range and difficulty she enjoys, all just outside her back door.

And here’s the real kicker — it’s over a decade old and performs like new!
