WELLINGTON (Reuters) - Lydia Ko can become the Tiger Woods of women's golf if she sets herself higher goals, according to compatriot and former major winner Michael Campbell.

Ko's win at the Evian Championship on Sunday made her the youngest woman to win a major and the third New Zealander after men's players Bob Charles and Campbell.

American Woods won his 14 majors over a 12-year period from 1997 and Campbell said Ko should aim for similar dominance of the women's game.
