Palm Beach, Fla.--Rolex has awarded its 2008 Player of the Year award to Lorena Ochoa, the world's No. 1 ranked female golfer since April 2007, and winner of seven tournaments in 2008.

Ochoa, who has won the Rolex Player of the Year award for the last three years, was also awarded the 2008 Vare Trophy for the Ladies' Professional Gold Association's (LPGA) lowest stroke average (68.6) during the year.

Taiwan's Yani Tseng was awarded the 2008 Louise Suggs Rolex Rookie of the Year award. Suggs was on hand to present Tseng with her award and was also honored with a Rolex timepiece of her own.

Rolex, which has had a relationship with the LPGA since 1980, sponsors both Ochoa and Annika Sorenstam, an eight time Rolex Player of the Year.
