The sad part is you probably still have no idea who I am talking about. Well, unless you’ve been here, or here or here.
Lorena Ochoa, who is the #1 ranked Golfer on the LPGA Tour, and the only woman besides Michelle Wie that I could pick out in a line-up (maybe), has decided to retire at the young age of 28.
Her reasoning for retiring is so she can spend more time with her husband, Andres Conesa, who is the CEO of the Mexican Airline AeroMexico – so needless to say he is doing pretty well. So well in fact, that the top woman athlete on the planet (Not my words) can quit her job to go home and do nothing – except maybe assist with taking care of her newly acquired step children.
Does this sound like a raw deal to anyone else?
Either Ochoa is just another lazy bitch that doesn’t feel like working anymore, or her husband has her so cock-whipped that she thinks spending time with kids that aren’t even hers is a good idea. He must have taken her V Card or something.
But if this is the kind of life that she wants for herself, then good for her. She has made enough money that if she doesn’t feel like working anymore, then more power to her.
But if I hear one mention of her early retirement being compared to the likes of Barry Sanders or Jim Brown, I might have to strangle someone.

Thank god your first paragraph said that, because I suddenly felt all alone, but then didn’t anymore.
So when golfers retire, do they, like, go work 9-5 in an office?
