Lytham St. Annes, England ? Annika Sorenstam’s clutch drive on the 18th hole set up a routine par Sunday, giving Sorenstam a one-stroke victory over chief rival Se Ri Pak and another place in the LPGA Tour record book as only the sixth woman to complete the career Grand Slam.

“This is what I wanted for so long,”Sorenstam said Sunday after winning the British Open.

Sorenstam took the lead for the first time with a two-putt birdie on the par-5 11th. Pak battled back to tie with birdies on the 12th and 16th holes, but the South Korean stumbled with a bogey on the tough closing hole at Royal Lytham & St. Annes. Sorenstam two-putted from 10 feet for par on the final hole and closed with a 2-under 70, finishing at 10-under 278.

Sorenstam won the U.S. Women’s Open in 1995-96 and the Nabisco Championship in 2001-02. Since playing in the Colonial, where she missed the cut with respectable rounds of 71-75, she won the LPGA Championship in a playoff over Grace Park, and held off an impressive group of standouts to win the Women’s British Open.

“I’ve won another major, and now I’ve won all four,” she said. “So all my goals are coming true.”

Karrie Webb, Juli Inkster, Pat Bradley, Mickey Wright and Louise Suggs are the only other women with career Grand Slams.

Pak closed with a 72. Webb, the defending champion, closed with a 71 and finished two strokes behind at 8-under 280, along with Park. Webb failed to win a major in a season for the first time since 1998.
