RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif. - It might be time for Annika Sorenstam to reassess her goals for the season. She wants to win all four major championships, but perhaps a better goal might be to win every tournament she plays in.

The way Sorenstam is playing these days, anything seems possible.

The most dominant player in golf remained unbeaten on the season Sunday, and she made a statement while doing it. Sorenstam turned a runaway into a blowout, shooting a final-round 68 to win the Nabisco Championship by eight shots and extend her LPGA Tour winning streak to five.

Sorenstam had reason to celebrate, and celebrate she did. She was doused in champagne after sinking her putt on the final hole before taking the traditional winner’s plunge into the pond next to the 18th green along with sister Charlotta and mother Gunilla.

“I’m going to remember this Easter weekend for a long time,” Sorenstam said.

So will golf fans, who witnessed the best player of her generation — perhaps the best ever — turn the first major championship of the year into a romp with a weekend that included 10 birdies and no bogeys over the final 36 holes.

Sorenstam was so dominating that fellow competitors could only marvel at the new heights her game is reaching.

“It only shows that she’s that much better than the rest of us,” defending champion Grace Park said.

The win was Sorenstam’s fifth in a row over two seasons, tying a record set by Nancy Lopez in 1978. It also was the 59th LPGA Tour victory of her career — a number Sorenstam is very familiar with — and her eighth major championship win.

Lopez didn’t even bother to compare her with other players on the LPGA Tour. She aimed a little higher.

“I think really, and truly, she’s better than Tiger Woods,” Lopez said. “We have a lot of great players out here and nobody is even coming close to her.”

Unlike most players, Sorenstam has no problem with stating her goals, whether they are playing in a men’s tournament or winning the women’s Grand Slam. Unlike most players, she sets them high and then has a good chance of meeting them.

Sorenstam stumbled last year after saying she wanted to win all four majors and only won one. But she has one down now, and is playing the best golf of her remarkable career.

“This is a long year and who knows what will happen,” Sorenstam said. “But it’s a good start.”

Sorenstam began the weekend tied for the lead, then shot rounds of 66 and 68 to leave the rest of the field far behind. She had a five-shot lead beginning the day, and wasted no time in turning it to eight shots with birdies on three of her first five holes.

Sorenstam was impressive with both her driver and her short game. She was the longest hitter in the tournament, consistently hitting the ball 50 to 60 yards past her playing partners, and made almost every putt under 10 feet when it counted.
