Lorena Ochoa, the top-ranked women's golfer, retired from active play on Friday. "This is a special day for me," Ochoa, 28, said on Friday. "All the elements are together. I wanted to achieve my goals and be the No. 1 player in the world. I'm ready to start a new life. I want to be a normal person, do everyday things. "I'm ready to move on." Ochoa announced on Friday that she will participate in next week's Tres Marias Championship and will play annually in her own Lorena Ochoa Invitational in Mexico. She will become a non-active member of the LPGA Tour. Ochoa left the door open to possibly playing some major championships down the line, but this appears to be the end for the Mexican star. http://www.seattlepi.com/scorecard/golfnews.asp?articleID=279478
