The tour that doesn’t need any bad news had a major bomb dropped right on top of it Tuesday. The world’s No. 1 female golfer, Mexico’s Lorena Ochoa, is hanging up her PINGs.

Well what do you know? There just might be athletes out there who actually demonstrate, through their actions, that winning is nothing without the integrity to go with it; that they really do have the right stuff.
