One questions about 'shots."

Dear all,
Could you tell me the meaning of 'by 13 shots" in the following sentence? Thank you very much.

Michelle started playing golf when she was just four. At just 13, she won the most important women’s competition by 13 shots.

Thanks again.

Hi, In golf, every time you hit the ball it is called 'a shot'. She won by hitting the ball 13 times less than the second-place finisher. Clive
